Introduction to Green Woodworking - Spindle Course

Introduction to Green Woodworking - Spindle Course

at Deepdale Farm

hero
 

This is a 1-day green woodworking course introducing you to this mindful rural craft.

– Learn about the properties and handling of green wood
– Get familiar with tools, including the draw knife and the pole lathe
– Create a selection of objects before taking them home to show off

This is an ideal way to begin your foray into green woodworking. Richard will clearly explain the properties of green wood, starting with a log and knocking it down with an axe. Next you will begin to shape it on a draw knife, before mounting it on a spindle pole lathe to refine your design using a variety of chisels.

 

It’s a great opportunity to gain skills in this mindful rural craft.

  • All tools are supplied by the instructor.
  • Wear clothing suitable to work undercover but outdoors.
  • Bring a packed lunch to enjoy in the barn or courtyard.
  • Hot drinks will be provided throughout the day.
  • All courses have a maximum of four participants to ensure Richard can give you his full attention.
  • The course will take place at our woodland barn, close to where the green wood is harvested fresh for each green woodworking course. The barn is under cover, but where possible the doors will be open onto the courtyard.
  • The course and venue are not suitable for participants to bring their dogs or other pets.
  • An email will be sent prior to the course to give directions to the barn.
  • The courses do not include accommodation. We recommend staying at Deepdale Camping & Rooms, which offer excellent self-catering rooms and camping for tents, campervans and motorhomes.
