Woodturning classes
Introduction to bowl making
These classes are a great opportunity to express your creativity. Making a bowl will give you an insight into the craft of turning. The beautiful hardwood bowl you take home will be a thing to be proud of.

Spindle turning class
Full day class for one person
Bowl turning and spindle turning are the two main branches of the craft of woodturning, so I offer classes devoted to each. But I also offer a combined class for people who want to cover both topics in a single day.
Refreshments and a light lunch are provided.
Because there isn’t time in one day for two people to do this class, I can only offer it to one person at a time. Many people find spindle turning challenging at first if they have done no turning before. This class is quite intensive, with a lot to take in in a limited time.
This class can be quite flexible in content and level. If you are mostly interested in bowl making you could make two bowls, instead of doing the spindle turning. The first will get you off to a good start, while the second could perhaps be a little more advanced. This option is for one person only. You could also book this class to work on another project such as a turned box, but please contact me first to discuss this option.

Some recent reviews of my woodturning classes:
- “What a brilliant afternoon with Terry, learning (and doing) woodturning. The bowl I made looks great, even if my new expertise means I can tell where it isn’t perfect. A great Christmas present from my wife, and a great session. Thanks Terry.” Roger
- “My partner and I had an absolutely brilliant day learning how to turn a wooden bowl under Terry’s expert guidance. It was a really hands-on day. You get stuck in straight away and learn by doing. We both had lots of time on the lathe turning our bowls and came away understanding the principles of how to turn a wooden bowl. Terry is a patient and friendly teacher who explains everything in a really clear easy to understand way. We were both really happy with the bowls we made. If you’re looking for a fun educational day where you learn to make something, we couldn’t recommend it more highly.” Lauren
