What happens on the day?
A one-day general woodwork course with Greenwood Days in Staunton Harold.
What is general woodwork?
A general woodwork course teaches the foundations rather than one craft: measuring and marking, sawing straight, planing flat, cutting a joint that actually closes, and sharpening the tools that do it. It is the right starting point if you are not yet sure which direction you want to go in.

Questions people ask before booking
Do I need to bring my own tools?
Greenwood Days 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 £120 a fair price for this?
Most one-day general woodwork courses on this site cost between £90 and £225. At £120 this one sits towards the cheaper end, out of 22 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 Greenwood Days. 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.
