It runs in a converted farm. Tools, materials and refreshments are included in the price. The day breaks for lunch.
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.
