What happens on the day?
A one-day wood carving course with Woodland Skills Centre in Bodfari.
What is wood carving?
Carving means cutting a shape into a block by hand, with gouges and a mallet. It is slower than turning and there is no machine doing any of the work. Beginners usually start with a relief carving, where the design is cut into a flat panel rather than in the round, because it teaches tool control without needing you to think about a shape from every angle at once.

Questions people ask before booking
Do I need to bring my own tools?
Woodland Skills Centre does not state on their page whether tools are provided for this course. Ask them before you book, because a hand carving course can assume you bring your own.
Is £85 a fair price for this?
Most one-day wood carving courses on this site cost between £80 and £200. At £85 this one sits towards the cheaper end, out of 8 we hold a price for. Price alone will not tell you which suits you: group size and what is included matter as much.
Who do I book with?
You book directly with Woodland Skills Centre. Woodwork UK does not take bookings, does not add a fee, and is not paid for the link. They set the dates, the price and the number of places.
