Whittling Wisdom
Everything you need to know to make yourself an expert whittler! We will begin from scratch learning the basic about wood, the correct knife and tools, techniques, positions and safety steps to achieve mastery with wood, to turn any piece into a thing of beauty and purpose. All equipment provided if you have none of your own. Chalk carving is available for the younger ones to develop strength, confidence, hand- eye co-ordination and fine motor skills. A back to basics day for all the family.
