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."
