Edit and Andrew reviewed: Half Day Introductory Woodturning Course for 1 or 2 people near Salisbury Wiltshire

"We had the best morning with George. He patiently talked us through the basics of wood turning and helped us make some lovely items (Christmas tree model, bowl and spinning top) to take away. He is so knowledgeable and passionate about his craft, it is a joy to be around him while he is in his element."

"What a fantastic day we had. George was a brilliant and very patient teacher. We felt very comfortable and found George to be very approachable and super knowledgeable about different types of wood and of course the art of wood turning. We were given the time to experiment and ask questions. And added bonus was that George and his lovely wife provided us with a wonderful lunch and cake ! We would definitely recommend this course to anyone remotely interested in wood turning. We were super chuffed with our creations. "

"Wow! What a great course. The set up is really good, and I was working on the larger lathe, as I was doing the course on my own. George is an incredible teacher, who had a gentle manner, is very personable, and generous with his time, his assistance (if needed) and encouragement. Wood turning is new for me and I thoroughly enjoyed the course. Can't wait to do some more!! Of all the craft courses I have done, this has been the best. "

"Me and my partner had such a wonderful experience with George, woodturning for his birthday. Incredibly patient, even when we kept forgetting the same thing over and over again! George had a cosy workshop where we all worked and we left with 2 proper pieces we made!(three including the practice piece). I genuinely would recommend the experience to anyone. A great Instructor and fun day out ☺️"

"Fantastic day learning the basics of Wood Turning. George very much adjusts the course to suit the pace of the student and is a very knowledgeable and skilled Turner. Better still, the day came with delicious food and great conversation. I couldn't have hoped for more."
