Maker's bio

Ged first got into green woodworking through renovating his house and garden. He built his own bespoke kitchen from wood and taught himself as he went. He enjoyed it so much he decided he'd like to teach others how to craft beautiful items from natural resources. Ged's interests include hill walking, bird watching, yoga, conservation, environmental issues and northern soul. He's a very calm and encouraging teacher and an all round great human being!

John Maclauchlan reviewed: Log to tumbler with Gedwood

"Great course, great situation, great teacher and the weather was kind also! Learnt a lot from Ged who had a great balance of letting you do as much as you can but also helping us where necessary. Covered a huge amount in a short time. I definitely have workshop envy! And the company was also great. Definitely plan to do another course."

Gedwood responded:

"Ah, many thanks John. Glad you enjoyed the day. And hope to see you again on a course👍 "
