The old teacher in me has not left and having some
40+ years of
experience in turning and in helping others to learn the skills and joys
of this wonderful subject.
If
you are a newcomer to making piles of sawdust and shavings, or you
have given it a go and would like to know more or just want to develop
your skills, rest assured that you will get a warm welcome and a very
personal and professional approach to your needs.
I
have two fully equipped lathes at my disposal complete with a fully
functional workshop for you to use. What maybe unique is that I
can also offer training at your premises. I can bring a lathe and
a basic set of tools or we can use your equipment; whichever you prefer!
If
you are thinking of purchasing turning equipment, need repairs or want
to upgrade then I am happy to help in any way I can. I also have
at any one time a variety of equipment for sale or hire - this again is
probably unique within this fraternity!
Before
considering any training sessions please telephone or email to discuss
your requirements; full/half days can be tailored specifically for your
needs.
Testimonial:
We have had 2 fabulous training days
with Richard. He is passionate about wood turning and really helps you
understand all about the wood, the tools and the machinery. He is a patient
teacher who is flexible to each persons needs. We came home on a high with
various items that we created and eager to start turning ourselves. We would
highly recommend a wood turning day with Richard, your life will never be
the same again!
