A Course for Everybody
Our one-week taster course is designed to give you an all-round introduction to furniture making techniques. It’s for everybody, from those with absolutely no experience or a hobbyist keen to develop a deeper interest in the craft.
You’ll be guided all the way through the week, gaining skills and confidence as we cover a range of techniques, from the absolute basics to more advanced methods of woodwork. Using these acquired skills you will produce a beautiful, solid wood tray that you can take home.
This course is also a great way to see if furniture making is something you would like to do as a career, take one of our longer courses or simply develop a deeper interest as a hobby.
No previous experience is required, just plenty of enthusiasm!
All tools are provided by us here at robinson house studio; we have toolboxes for each student with everything you’ll need throughout the week. If you have any of your own tools then feel free to bring them along and we can look at tuning and sharpening them. Each week-long taster course only has three or four students, up to a max of 5, so there’s plenty of one-on-one teaching.
Refunded Cost
If you are considering booking a longer course with us, the one-week taster is the perfect way to see if it’s the right decision. When booking a 12, 24 or 50-week course, the cost of the one-week taster is refunded against the cost of the long course, so you have nothing to lose and everything to gain!
