After doing 2 separate day courses on foundation joinery and using that newly acquired knowledge to build a chair , I feel like I've come away with even more than I expected. David has many years of practical woodworking experience and that really shows. I'd never used machine tools before and now I feel confident using a table saw, jointer, band saw, router and thickness planer to prepare and joint timber. It was really interesting to make a single joint using hand tools first, and then again with various other machine techniques. Thanks for a very enjoyable 2 days.

Thoroughly enjoyed my tiling class this evening. David explained everything clearly and in a simple way. David encouraged questions and allowed students to practice using tools that we had spoken about. I will definitely be signing up for more classes. Highly recommend.

I was due to take the ultimate power tool course in April but it got postponed along with everything else. Course reinstated in June and I thoroughly enjoyed it. David was very knowledgeable and flexible which allowed me to more or less decide what tools I wanted to focus on. I was able to show David some of my tools and use his as well in order to gain a better understanding of how to operate effectively and safely. I took a particular project that I had in mind and we were able to discuss it and i got some great ideas. All in all a thoroughly enjoyable learning experience and the time just flew by. Thanks David and Kirsty Joseph

Really interesting and informative course on basic woodwork. David went through the course content and explained what to look for when selecting timber, the tools used, various joints etc. David gave us a practical demonstration and supervised us when using the tools and when making joints. David was very happy to answer questions and demonstrate solutions to problems encountered. Really useful course and have come away keen to go on other courses to learn more skills.
