A one-day spoon carving course with Axe & Paddle Bushcraft in Llangadog. Axe & Paddle Bushcraft say it suits beginners and people with some experience.
What is spoon carving?
Spoon carving uses green, unseasoned wood and three tools: an axe to rough the shape, a straight knife to refine it, and a hook knife for the bowl. It needs almost no space and no machines, which is why it is the usual way into woodwork. Most people finish a spoon in a day and leave knowing enough to carry on at home.

Questions people ask before booking
Do I need to bring my own tools?
Axe & Paddle Bushcraft 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. Axe & Paddle Bushcraft 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.
Is £85 a fair price for this?
Most one-day woodworking courses on this site cost between £80 and £230. At £85 this one sits towards the cheaper end, out of 73 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?
