We have moved

After 6 years of turning and teaching in Dunshaughlin Co Meath we have decided to down size the premises along with the overheads. We have moved back to home (Clonee) where it all started many years ago and are delighted to resume classes again in January 2015.

The new workshop is a little smaller than our previous one so all class sizes are now reduced. Instead of the normal 6 students per class we will now only have 3 which means the student will have a lot more mentoring than before. Workshop2 Workshop1

BOOK NOW

Our Summer camps for youths are designed for children between the age of 12 and 19 years. This is a fantastic opportunity for younger people to be introduced to the ancient craft of wood turning.

The course will consist of five three hour classes over a period of five days. The class size is limited to five students per class… and we are only running 4 weeks this year… so early booking is advisable.

DAY  1
Introduction to wood turning, health & safety, basic tool techniques to get you started, and plenty of shavings will be made.

DAY  2
After all the practise you have done yesterday we will now make a garden dibber.

DAY  3
Today our project will be to make a candlestick holder.

DAY 4
Today we are going to make a kitchen roll holder.

DAY  5
This is the last day and you will have a good basic knowledge of wood turning. Hopefully  you may even want to take it up when you go back to school.
To finish of our course, today we are going to make our very own pen.

COST
Cost of this course is €180 per person. This includes all materials and all items made on the course are going home with the student.

I look forward to introducing you to this wonderful craft.

COURSE TIMES
This Course is run over a 5 day period, Monday to Friday. Class times are 9.30 am until 12.30 pm. Classes commence weekly on Mon 9th, Mon 16th, Mon 23rd and Mon 30th of June. See the month of June in the calender below for more detail on dates:
