Make a one leg stool
Learn how to make a one leg stool on this two day course with the Somerset Bodgers.
- Booking essential
On day one, you will turn the leg (which began as an ash log) on the lathe. On day two, the seat is fashioned and the leg inserted into the seat. The finished product is useful for anyone needing to concentrate on learning a new skill because keeping your balance is said to help with concentration!
Price: £120 (includes admission to Tyntesfield, all materials, use of tools, and hot drinks)
Over 16s only.
