Martina Hardy reviewed: Woodturning tuition in Wiltshire

"I bought this course as a present for my husband. He had a great day with Andy, thoroughly enjoyed working with lots of different tools and came back inspired and full of ideas. The bowl they made together on the day is just beautiful . Highly recommend Andy and will no doubt book another day in the future. "

George reviewed: Woodturning tuition in Wiltshire

"I attended Andy's course with my Dad as a joint Christmas present. We were (are?) both complete beginners, and Andy did a wonderful job of building up our understanding of wood turning from scratch. Andy takes you through the importance of sharpening your tools correctly, introduces the core techniques of spindle turning, and after lunch moves onto turning a bowl. In each section of the course he carefully explains the fundamentals of what you should be doing, and is always on hand to step in when you go off course (... often, in our case). If you want a comprehensive introduction to woodturning, this is the course for you - be ready to receive alot of information in a short space of time! Thank you Andy (and Mary and Angus) for giving us a memorable day out and proving a brilliant foundation in this skill. "

"Andy is a wonderful teacher and helped me to understand the basics of woodworking in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere. the knowledge and experience he passes on in such a short time is invaluable and will help me hone my skills. I will be back soon once i have honed my new skills. Thank you to Mary and Angus for the company during breaks and the homemade cakes, brilliant."
