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.

Is £300 a fair price for this?
Most weekend wood carving courses on this site cost between £140 and £260. At £300 this one sits above almost all of them, out of 10 we hold a price for. Price alone will not tell you which suits you: group size and what is included matter as much.
