JOHN HUME reviewed: Epoxy resin river coffee table workshop

"I have previously attended a course run by Richard Wagner which was excellent in all respects. Richard was extremely well prepared with good facilities and material for the project. He is very skilled on the techniques and also has a generous and informative style of teaching that encourages all skill levels to take part. I would thoroughly recommend Richard and the course."

"This course was really excellent. I have just complete the course today 12 June and it really exceeded my expectations. Richard has a great way of getting people to think about the situation and come up with really pertinent questions. The pace was really measured and I was very pleased that it covered in detail the mold construction and sealing plus mold release and how to calculate the volume of resin to prepare. I had already booked on the part 2 of this course and I am very please I have. I can’t wait. I probably could have spent the rest of the day there just asking questions as the whole subject was fascinating. Thank you Richard and I look forward to part 2."

"Richard really demystified the whole process and made it so easy for me to create a beautifully finished resin coaster. I didn't know what to expect at first but was so happy that this course is very hands on whilst giving us the relevant information and guidance throughout. I would highly recommend this course for anyone at any level! I really enjoyed it and Richard is a great teacher. I'm looking forward to attend his other courses!!!"

Pam Bailey reviewed: Beginners Epoxy Resin Workshop

"I attended this course on May 15th. I have been interested in resin craft for a while and thought this would be a good introduction to learn the basics. Richard was very knowledgeable on all aspects of the course. There was a lot of information to absorb on the day and because the class was quite large I couldn't quite grasp the working out of the measurements (parts of resin to parts of hardener) although Richard did sort it out on his calculator. I wish I had separated the resin in to more cups. I had used two cups but when pouring the two mixtures in to the mould they ended up mixing together so didn't really show separate colours. I did enjoy the course but wish there would have been more tips on how to get the different shades and effects that you see in most resin products."

"I completed the course on the 15th May. Richard was very good, informative and calm. He took time to explain the process before diving in and very helpful throughout. As all things creative I enjoyed the experience. The workshop was well organised and pleasant to work in."

John reviewed: Beginners Epoxy Resin Workshop

"I was a complete novice when I came to the session. Richard did a good job at showing me the basics and gave me the extra time to make sure I had the ability to make a basic resin table when I left. I'm glad I came and it was well worth the time and the money. I am looking forward to coming back to learn more and taking my 'skill' to the next level."

The River Shop responded:

"Thanks for coming John! Hope you continue to develop your interest in resin and we see you again soon! Richard"

Paul reviewed: Beginners Epoxy Resin Workshop

"The course was perfect for beginners or people who have already dabbled in epoxy resin. Richard and his assistant were fantastic and explained every part of the process. Every question was answered and Richard gave extra little bits of advice and tips beyond what I would have expected. I’d definitely recommend this if you want to learn the principles of live edge wood and epoxy resin."
