A wood carving course with Whisby Nature Park in Lincoln. Whisby Nature Park say it suits beginners and people with some experience.
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?
Whisby Nature Park 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 it suitable for a complete beginner?
Yes. Whisby Nature Park bills this course as suiting people starting from scratch as well as those with some experience who want to develop further, so a mixed-ability group is expected.
Who do I book with?
You book directly with Whisby Nature Park. 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.
