introduction

This
course is two days in duration to allow time to build on turning techniques with
a focus on bowls and platters.
As with all of our courses, they are essentially ‘hands-on’ learning
so that you gain as much as possible from your time spent with us and to take
home examples of the projects you have covered.
what you
will learn
During the course you will cover design, wood selection, tool techniques such
as cover end grain shear scraping and platter rim decoration and finishing, while
gaining a wealth of ideas and knowledge from our experienced tutor.
