What is green woodworking?

Green woodworking works with freshly felled, unseasoned timber, which cuts far more easily than the dried stuff. It is hand tools, often outdoors, using a shave horse and a drawknife. Chairs, stools, spoons and rakes all come out of this tradition, and it predates sawmills and kiln drying entirely.

Dates, prices and places are set by London Green Wood, not by us, and can change at any time. Always confirm the details with them before you travel.

Questions people ask before booking

Do I need to bring my own tools?

London Green Wood does not state on their page whether tools are provided for this course. Ask them before you book, because a hand woodworking course can assume you bring your own.

Is it suitable for a complete beginner?

Yes. London Green Wood 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 London Green Wood. 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.
