Rob Taylor reviewed: Woodturning Experience Days - Come and spend a day turning your first bowl

"I attended the woodturning course at the weekend, I made 2 bowls that I am very proud of and Stephen couldn't have been a better teacher. From the off he was very welcoming with fresh coffee and a chat about objectives and background. We then got to the lathe and started with a short demo and then over to me. It was hugely rewarding seeing the bowls take shape and although I have done some woodworking in the past and the patience and tactility of using the lathe was something different altogether. Stephen helped advise on finishes, sanding and equipment and give me a huge amount of confidence in tackling my own projects. A hugely enjoyable day and I would recommend to anyone."

Bodden Cross Studio responded:

"Thank you Rob. A pleasure working with you and please remember to keep asking the questions about lathes, tools etc. Best wishes Stephen"
