Make a wooden eating bowl in the way the vikings did it. On this one day course you will turn at least one bowl on a foot powered lathe. If it is your first bowl, you will be shown how to rough out a bowl from a log, shape both the inside and outside on the lathe and then finish off the last little bits with a hook knife. Matt has been turning in this style for 15 years, so if this is your first bowl, rest assured, he will explain everything. If you are looking to improve your bowl turning, maybe you have already turned a few bowls, then Matt can take you through the whole process and give you the little tips you need to up your game. - There may be as many as 6 people on this course. - This course is taught outside under canvas. - 9.30am till 4.30pm.

Maker
We have been teaching traditional crafts for over 25 years. In our everyday we use both the areas of greenwoodwork and blacksmithing to inspire our students, both young and old. We believe that craft making is a revolutionary act both personally and within society and have used teaching as a way to connect people to lost heritage alongside working with excluded adults to reconnect with their own personal power. Craft is also a great deal of fun.
