Tom reviewed: Make Your Own Shavehorse – Green Woodworking Course in South Wales

"I had a very enjoyable 2 days with Celi learning how to make a shavehorse and learning how to use froes for splitting logs, axes for wood removal, drawknife for shaping parts, pole lathes for turning. It was a very safe and supportive atmosphere, all mucking in to help each other as the deadline approached, plenty of tea to keep us from flagging. I would recommend Celi and her courses in the woods"

"The two days spent on golden hill were so rewarding. Celi was a great host and teacher - made it fun. And so knowledgeable. Starting from no experience to taking home a beautiful handcrafted bench was amazing. I would not hesitate in recommending this course - it is very physically challenging but SO worthwhile - I learned loads. Thank you so much Celi "
