Jane Collingwood reviewed: Spoon carving taster session

"Dave is a very informative, an experienced craftsman and a patient teacher. I learned a lot about how to understand wood, what to think about when designing your spoon and the techniques to use the required tools. And I came home with a spoon and an interest in having another attempt. "

Martin Jackson reviewed: Spoon carving taster session

"Yesterday I did a wooden spoon making course with Dave Atkin. It was a really good experience and I enjoyed every minute, I would highly recommend the session. The session lasted for 3 hours which included a demonstration from Dave, lots of practical work making my spoon and excellent teaching and advice. Dave was very welcoming, friendly and an obvious expert in his field. The time flew and by the end of the session I had made a wooden spoon using only an axe and a knife. A very rewarding experience leaving me with a great feeling of achievement. "

"Dave is an excellent teacher. I would thoroughly recommend this half day course to anyone wanting to get a good grounding in hatchet and knife carving skills for wooden spoons. His advice about appropriate tools and sharpening techniques is also really helpful. This was a great birthday present for me."

"Many thanks Colin, so glad you enjoyed the course."
