Spoon carving workshop

This one day course takes you through the processes of safely carving a spoon from a piece of hardwood.

Axes and a variety of specialist knives are used to fashion the spoon and when complete, advice on caring for your creation and tools is given.

We have a good selection of spoon carving tools, so for anyone thinking of taking up this specialisation it's a good opportunity to try out what is available.
