FREE Woodturning Taster Session, 15th / 16th July 2022 - BOOK NOW!

"I have forgotten the name of the enthusiastic and helpful encourager who gave me / us excellent guidance on how to improve my wood turning experience. Well I needed it, and am looking forward to coming back again for the 2 day course in April. It was a pleasurable time. "

"I had a wonderful time. The tutor was excellent, I really enjoyed the session. "

"Wood turning session would have been much better if the previous slot was restricted to the four places (four lathes) which would have avoided the half hour overrun prior to our booked slot of 1015. To compound the issue, our booked slot was also overbooked this time six participants. This needs to be avoided if only for the sanity of the excellent instructor. We will have to book again!"

"The training was very good. I would recommend the train and hope to book in for a 2 day course next year."

"Excellent introduction to wood turning for effectively free as credited the course cost of just £10 to spend in their store. Good and pleasant instructor"

"My wife land me loved the whole event and especially the wood turning taster, for some reason my wife thought we were just going to watch it being done but when she started doing the turning on the lathe she loved it, we have got two lovely pens to look at and use. "

"My husband has been turning for some time, so I thought it would be nice to have a go myself. Very good teaching, I enjoyed and even bought myself a few bowl blanks to continue at home."

"This was one of the best hour spent in my life and so enjoyed it. Not many things in life are free and you get to take your first bowl home ????. Many thanks to Yandles for your time and advice and a must to anyone who would like to try. "

"Fantastic & very instructive session. A great setup. "

"I went on this taster session because my son, who has recently taken up wood turning, said I would enjoy it, and I did. The session lasted an hour and everything you needed was supplied including expert tuition. It was absolutely brilliant and at the end of the hour I left with a big smile and a little bowl that I had turned. I didn’t buy a lathe, but I may well go back for a 2day course to explore the subject further. Thank you so much to Yandles for organising thes sessions. "

"A great start to a new skill. I have had issues trying to get the knack of bowl turning but Paul was very patient and explained the principles of the tools very succinctly. Considering it was only a 1 hour taster the amount of knowledge imparted built my confidence immensely. I hope to move on to the 2 day course to re-learn other skills as soon as work permits."

"As a beginner, my speed was slower than some of the others so to catch up the tutor took over and moved the task forward. Whilst I understand the time constraints, the end product was not a bowl entirely of my making. On the up side, the base spigot allows remounting and final sanding and adding a finish can still be done. I would do this again."

"Husband and I really enjoyed our taster woodturning session. It's fantastic that Yandles has such a great facility, with a very experienced trainer. We got to keep the bowls we made and they look amazing. I have always wanted to have a go at woodturning, so thank you very much Yandles."
