An intensive 2 days focused on preparing hand tools and sharpening in order to gain ultimate control. A must for those seeking fast gains in the quality of their work. Brilliant for beginners as well as those with previous woodworking experience. All high quality woodwork starts with tools that are well set up and exceptionally sharp. If you can’t achieve this, then the phrase ‘ a bad workman blames their tools’ is probably pretty reasonable. During this intensive 2 day course we will guide you through the preparation and sharpening of both hand planes and chisels; the core skills of the woodworker seeking to achieve accurate results.
