Green Woodworking/Pole Lathe Experience | Farmland Museum | Sat 25 July

Saturday 25 July 10.00 am – 4.00 pm - Farmland Museum - CB25 9PQ

£85 including tea/coffee & biscuits throughout, materials, use of all equipment on the day & tutoring.
 
Learn how to take a log of green wood, trim it with an axe, draw it to shape using a shave horse and a draw knife and then use the pole lathe to turn your piece into an item of your choice.
 
The workshop is taking place at the Farmland Museum in Waterbeach which has its own Docky Box Tearoom where you can have lunch - do pre-order when you arrive and let the staff know you are one of our students - or you are of course welcome to bring your own packed lunch.
 
This full-day group experience includes tea/coffee & biscuits throughout, materials and the use of all the equipment.

About a week before your workshop date, we'll e-mail you
again with more details about timings and parking etc.
 
The sessions are hands-on, and the student will be able to use the green woodworking equipment and pole lathe to create their pieces.
The tuition can be tuned to what they would like to do, as people tend to learn quicker working in areas that they are interested in. They can choose from a number of items that would be suitable for beginners or those relatively new to the art. 
 
All of the wood used is from sustainable local sources.
 
The 1-day workshop includes:
- Use of all tools, materials and personal protection equipment (eye protection/lung protection).
- Refreshments (tea/coffee/biscuits).
- Free entry to the Farmland Museum & Denny Abbey.
- As we limit the number of people to 6, you get to have some 1-2-1 tuition and the maximum benefit from a day with no distractions.
- All work can be taken home.
- Follow-up advice.
 
The fabulous Docky Box Tearoom at the Farmland Museum has some truly scrumptious food to tempt you at lunchtime🍲; plenty of yummy treats, so you won’t go hungry 🥔❣️
 
This would make a fabulous CRAFTY GIFT for someone - so drop us a line and we can post out to you/the recipient a complimentary personalised gift certificate for this experience🎁
