Our bowl-making classes are suitable for complete beginners. We take a maximum of ten people per session. You will be working in pairs, one supporting the other, taking turns to complete each stage in the production of your own bowl. The trainer demonstrates the method before each step, then you work at your own pace with his guidance and supervision. We usually have a very balanced mix of men and women of different ages. Just over half of attendees come on their own and the vast majority have no previous experience.
You will be amazed at what you can do in five hours even if you have never handled woodworking tools before. Having shaped your bowl inside and out the colour and lustre of the chosen wood are brought out by high-speed but traditional finishing techniques. At the end of a busy and enjoyable day, you will have made something of form and beauty. We can help if you wish to progress further with turning or are interested in setting up your own workshop.
The Camden Town Shed is an association offering a workspace where users can work on practical projects or follow hobbies with others. The space is currently equipped for woodworking and hand-building in clay although we hope to extend that range.
Members decide when they come and what they do and enjoy learning from each other. The main sessions are for older people but other supervised sessions can be for over-18’s.
Although its free to attend the workshop is substantially funded by member donations, public courses and any items we make for sale. Members can come from anywhere in London.
Many people want to begin woodwork but need a bench. (How do I build a bench if I do not have a bench on which to build a bench…….) Over the past couple of years we have made a number of “modern benches” to our specific design.
This course will provide you with a range of carpentry and joinery skills and knowledge. You will also develop an understanding of the health and safety requirements for working in the construction industry, and the industry itself.
On completion of the Woodwork Foundation Course you will be welcome to develop your woodworking skills further through project work during the daytime or evening classes.
If you’re the type of person who likes to roll up their sleeves and get things done, then you would be the perfect person to study our Level 2 Technical Certificate in Site Carpentry.
Dexterity is practiced using hand tools and small power tools, with a strong understanding of health and safety being built in to all learning.
