Green woodwork is one of the most accessible
and enjoyable woodcrafts you can experience. Using traditional tools to shape
green [unseasoned] wood is a pleasure that is hard to match. The beauty of
green wood lies in its ability to be shaped easily as it is soft and easily
worked with hand tools.
Stephen Ryan from Green Woodwork Ireland will
teach you the skills needed to make your own piece of furniture in the form of
a small rustic bench, encompassing the use of the shave horse and a variety of
hand tools including the drawknife, auger drill and spoke shave. Aimed at the
complete novice or those with some experience, this course is suitable to
people both young and old. Tools, equipment and refreshments provided.
Please
wear old clothes, an over-shirt or apron to protect clothing and wear sturdy
