There is continuity and progression throughout my courses in tool technique and use, and yet each course stands alone as a self-contained learning experience. You can work through the courses stage by stage or connect with the course that suits your ability and interest. The only exception is the Masterclass, which requires participation on one of my Hollow Form courses first.

The Schoolroom:
is also the studio where I create all of my own work, and in 1999 was rebuilt and redesigned entirely with these activities in mind. It is fully equipped to cater for your needs as well as mine, with 8 lathes, dust extractor, Microclene ambient air cleaners. Each station has a fully equipped tool rack and cupboard containing virtually all the tools and abrasives required. There is a wood stove to heat the school in inclement weather. The roof has light panels making the room almost as daylight. Dare I say it, it is now the finest woodturning schoolroom facility I have seen on my extensive travels around the UK and North America.
