What the course involves
- When
- A full week, Monday to Friday
A week-long chair making course with Marc Fish Workshop Bench Space in Newhaven.
What is chair making?
Chairs are their own discipline. The angles compound, nothing is square, and a seat has to take weight without racking. Windsor and stick chairs are the usual route in, built green with a drawknife and a shave horse. Most chair courses run several days because you cannot rush the assembly.
Dates, prices and places are set by Marc Fish Workshop Bench Space, 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?
Marc Fish Workshop Bench Space 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 £850 a fair price for this?
Most 3 to 5 day woodworking courses on this site cost between £400 and £995. At £850 this one sits towards the pricier end, out of 34 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 Marc Fish Workshop Bench Space. 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.
