Woodturning Experiences

Are you looking for something uniquely different from your Lake District experience? Perhaps you've dreamed of making something with your hands. Maybe it's a rainy day and you want to try something fun!?

 

Whether you're trying woodturning for the first time or sharpening your woodturning skills, join me (Nathan) for a woodturning experience you won't forget! All sessions operate on a one to one basis.

 

"A brilliant use of time - wanted to do it again immediately!" - Ziggy

​

Half and full days available.

​

Past students have made pieces such as a platter, a table lamp, a spinning top, a bowl.

Father's Day Gift

You can come for a half day, full day or even two days.

​

Dad's are notoriously difficult to buy for. An experience allows them the chance to make something with their own hands that they can be proud of for years to come. Every time they see the piece they made, they'll think of you.
