At Dovetail, courses and experience/taster days have been designed for individuals with a range of experience. This includes the beginner - taking up woodwork for the first time, to those with a degree of know-how looking to move on to the next stage or improve their skills.

A really enjoyable couple of days. Steve is knowledgeable and is very good at putting you at ease and providing instruction and guidance in a friendly and constructive manner. I would happily recommend to anyone.

__________

Leave the hectic world aside and immerse yourself in a traditional workshop environment - where you will have use of your own bench and vice, complete with classic woodworking tools.

Take pleasure in the smell and feel of ‘real’ wood and the joy of planing a long continuous shaving with a super sharp hand plane.

I can’t recommend this course highly enough. Steve is a patient, good humoured and knowledgeable tutor while the course he has designed is well structured, builds logically from one stage to the next, and is timed perfectly to ensure that every student has the necessary time to work on each task and to go home with a finished product at the end of the course – all without any pressure. I’ll definitely be back for more in the future!

So if you enjoy learning something new, why not turn that experience into a skill and feel the sense of achievement in crafting timber into a handsome object to take home.
