Pen Turning Course

Michael reviewed: Woodturning Lessons with The Gentleman Woodturner

"Had a great couple of days. Mark not only knows a lot about wood turning, he's a good teacher too. As a beginner, it's a lot to take in even over two days, but I can thoroughly recommend Mark's courses."

The Gentleman Woodturner responded:

"Thank you for that kind review. I'm glad you enjoyed yourself "

"Excellent half day course, Matt is a good communicator, explaining and demonstrating everything as we went through the process of creating a wooden bowl. Would thoroughly recommend any course with Matt"

The Gentleman Woodturner responded:

"Thanks for the lovely review. Glad you enjoyed it. Although, the name is Mark, not Matt..... Lol "

"The morning course was a birthday present and I was joined by my 13 year old grandson. Neither of us had tried wood turning before, even though I’d done woodwork at school. Mark is an excellent teacher and apart from the bowls we made, we both came away with valuable knowledge and awareness of the skills involved. Thoroughly recommend."

The Gentleman Woodturner responded:

"Thank you for nice review. I'm so pleased you both enjoyed yourselves, the bowls you made were fantastic. Mark"

"Bought this as a present, and really enjoyed the morning. A real opportunity to have an experience turning a beautiful bowl. Would highly recommend the experience, and given the time taken and the equipment, I thought it was good value"

"Such a fabulous time with my partner Lee. We made such beautiful bowls under Mark's supervision. Will certainly look toward to another one. "

The Gentleman Woodturner responded:

"Thanks for the lovely review. It was pleasure to have you both in today. "

Peggy Crome reviewed: Woodturning Lessons with The Gentleman Woodturner

"I had the honour of being Mark's first 'student' in Westward Ho! He did a demo to show me the whole process of turning a block of wood into a beautiful wooden bowl. I put a picture on my FB page and had 109 likes and 35 positive comments. However, words cannot describe the feeling of handling the bowl. It is so smooth and almost talks to me! Cannot recommend this course enough. Would make an excellent Christmas present to the person who has everything. "

The Gentleman Woodturner responded:

"Thank you Peggy for this lovely review. It was a pleasure to instruct you. And you produced a beautiful bowl. "

I highly recommend this course to get a glimpse of the possibilities."

"Myself and 2 older teenagers ( 18 & 16 ) spent a morning with Mark learning to turn a wooden bowl. Safety was a top priority and the instruction was first class. We were all happy with the time allocated to teaching and making a bowl. The finished bowls were amazing and all slightly different. Great course, thank you Mark."
