Marc Arlès reviewed: Creative metalwork and welding, scrap metal sculpture.

"6 stars. An Absolutely fun, informative and uplifting day with (so called) waste metal. The tutors were pitch perfect, creating a warm, welcoming, playful and permissive space to explore the world of metal fabrication, addressing everyone’s diverse needs, while holding the space with solid health and safety practices. I highly recommend this course. "

Cameron reviewed: Creative metalwork and welding, scrap metal sculpture.

"I had a fantastic time as a first timer trying out welding and other metal craft equipment and techniques. I felt very comfortable and safe and was able to go at my own pace. I wasn’t sure how I’d get on with welding but am now sure i want to get my own equipment and start welding at home. "

"FANTASTIC course - I absolutely recommend it. The two instructors (Char and Dizzy) were superb throughout, teaching, guiding, and supporting as necessary. Good selection of materials, great set up, a thoroughly enjoyable and inspiring day, and I will 100% be continuing with the skills I have learnt. Thank you. "

Ian Hailey reviewed: Creative metalwork and welding, scrap metal sculpture.

"I had no idea what this was going to be like, in the end it was excellent. The two teachers were great, happy to take time to explore ideas and help us understand the best fabrication methods. Came away feeling like I had achieved something."

WTF Workshops responded:

"Thank you so much Ian! You did really well and certainly did achieve something. Your steampunk inspired top hat looked brilliant, when you have a plant in it pop us a photo please. Char :)"

Sue Barlow reviewed: Creative metalwork and welding, scrap metal sculpture.

"What a fantastic day we had, we learnt so many new skills. Char and Izzy were amazing teachers, you are both so talented at what you do. As a complete beginner you made me feel so comfortable and took time to explain how to use everything. We really enjoyed our day, it was lovely to see my dad having so much fun. We would definitely recommend the course to anyone interested in metalwork crafts. Thank you so much for making our day a memorable and enjoyable experience. Sue Barlow & David Charlson "

WTF Workshops responded:

"Thank you so much Sue & David for this kind and lovely review. It was an absolute pleasure to have you both in the workshop and to see your confidence grow throughout the session. So glad we could help you make such precious memories together! "

Chris C reviewed: Creative metalwork and welding, scrap metal sculpture.

WTF Workshops responded:

"Thank you for you review Chris. We are so glad you enjoyed yourself :)"

Emma reviewed: Creative metalwork and welding, scrap metal sculpture.

WTF Workshops responded:

"Thank you for your review Emma. It was great having you in the workshop and loved your May 4th Star Wars inspired piece! "

Andrew reviewed: Creative metalwork and welding, scrap metal sculpture.

"This was a great course. I never did any welding before but with instructions and supervision from Shar and Dizzy it was alot of fun. Dizzy and Shar are very encouraging and will answer any questions. If like me you've never done this sort of thing before you'll have a very enjoyable day taking you out of your routine and leaving you with a notion that you might be an artist after all!"

WTF Workshops responded:

"Hi Andrew, thank you for your kind review! Your motorbike was brilliant, a fantastic use of scrap metal and welding. "

James reviewed: Creative metalwork and welding, scrap metal sculpture.

"I selected this course as I wanted an introduction to metalwork and sculpture. All joining instructions were clear. Was met by Izzy and Shar who were instructors for the day for our group of 6. The instruction was very clear and friendly and they were on hand all day to help both with the technical and artistic aspects of creating a metal sculpture. It was great fun and would highly recommend. I will probably go on and do another course in metalwork before deciding whether to invest in some kit. "

WTF Workshops responded:

"Hi James, thank you for your kind review! We are so glad you enjoyed the day and it was great having you in the workshop. Let us know if you carry on with metalwork, we'd love to see any future projects! "

Kimble reviewed: Creative metalwork and welding, scrap metal sculpture.

"Excellent. Huge array of equipment to work with. Plenty of help at hand from the two tutors who were friendly and informative. Never welded before but by the end of the day had made a passable garden flower scuplture from scrap. Highly recommended."

Jackie Thomas reviewed: Creative metalwork and welding, scrap metal sculpture.

"We had an excellent day, where I learnt a new skill and had great fun. The whole set up worked well, easy to find and on site parking. Two friendly but skilled tutors to 6 learners was a good ratio, always help on hand. We all made very different items, but were all pleased with our creations. I really recommend it. Thank you ."

WTF Workshops responded:

"Hi Jackie, thank you so much for your review! We are glad you enjoyed your day and pleased with your creation :)"

Sam reviewed: Creative metalwork and welding, scrap metal sculpture.

"This course is great, I've been five times now! Felix and Izzy were excellent teachers, giving enough instruction to feel confident in using all the tools and then enough space to make mistakes and learn, and still end up with something you're happy with at the end of the day. It is a friendly environment, a really good way to experience something totally different to the day to day job."

WTF Workshops responded:

"Hi Sam, thank you so much for your lovely review. We are so happy you enjoyed the course and that you were able to take home a project you were happy with! "

Chris and Fran reviewed: Creative metalwork and welding, scrap metal sculpture.

"Fran and I had a great day. Felix and Annie made us feel very welcome, they showed us the variety of tools we could use. They clearly explained the health and safety issues. Then we were let loose!! Sorted through the scrap metal finding interesting pieces to make our projects. Either Felix or Annie were always on hand to help and give encouragement. Fran and I were delighted with the bizarre pieces we made. A really fun,busy,exciting day. Fantastic instructors. Thank you both. Chris &Fran"

"Well, thank you both for coming! We were both impressed with what you made and how you went about it. What an awesome pair you are! "

James reviewed: Creative metalwork and welding, scrap metal sculpture.

"An excellent day course for scrap metal welding. I’d already done some welding but had never gotten my hands on some scrap metal and a well-equipped workshop. It was a great day and I almost finished a rather ambitious project of a life sized electric guitar. The tutors were very helpful and all safety equipment was provided. Thanks a lot! "

WTF Workshops responded:

"Thanks so much for your review James. Your project was wonderful and we were very impressed. Your Father did great work too. Well done both! Hope you can join us again in the future."

Andy reviewed: Creative metalwork and welding, scrap metal sculpture.

"Appreciated the opportunity to learn use of various tools. Think carefully about how ambitious your project might be. The time passes quickly & I felt somewhat under pressure to complete my piece which detracted from enjoying the social aspect. Otherwise, a great creative experience. Would love to do some more."

WTF Workshops responded:

"It was a pleasure having you on the course Andy. Yours was indeed a very ambitious project. Well done for completing it in the time available! "

Linda Kirkpatrick reviewed: Creative metalwork and welding, scrap metal sculpture.

"Thank you Felix and Annie for a very enjoyable day, I found the introduction informative and helpful! So much material to choose from and new skills to learn! Having to use my brain all day left me exhausted but very satisfied with my project, although, it was weird and wonderful! A lady even commented on it at the station! Liz and I had such a time venturing into the world of scrap metal wonderland. Thank you again for a fabulous day!!!! "

WTF Workshops responded:

"Thanks so much for your kind review Liz!"

Liz Gibbs reviewed: Creative metalwork and welding, scrap metal sculpture.

"Had a really good day, although exhausting! Enjoyed using the equipment and learning new skills. Annie and Felix were great, explained everything well and helped whenever needed. A great experience. "

WTF Workshops responded:

"Thanks so much for your review Liz!"

Abi reviewed: Creative metalwork and welding, scrap metal sculpture.

"I bought this course as a gift for my friend Jemima for her birthday. I had such an amazing time- thanks Annie and Izi! Annie and Izi gave us an introduction tour of the workshop showing us the equipment we would be able to use and the scrap metal we would be able to choose bits from. It was great fun hunting through all the bits and pieces and thinking about how to join them all together. Annie and Izi explained which bits I had chosen could be welded together and which would have to be bolted. Out of a valve body for an automatic gear box, a bike chain, forks, washers and other bits of scrap I made an owl to go on my wall (which I love). Annie and Izi were really helpful but also let me crack on with using the equipment when I felt confident. I had great fun using the mig welder and the angle grinder- I even been looking up how much they are to buy since I got home 🤣 Loved this course so much! Thanks guys! Highly recommended! "

WTF Workshops responded:

"Hi Abi Thanks so much for your lovely review. It was an absolute pleasure having you both attend the course and we totally loved both of your quirky creations. All the best Annie"
