Monica reviewed: Spoon Carving with Touchwood Glasgow

"Went with my partner and we both had a great day together. It's a fab introduction workshop and I thoroughly recommend giving it a try. We learnt a lot from Robert, from thinking about reading the wood you have to the most efficient way to hold and manipulate the axe and knives. Every spoon is different and the two spoons we carved are as different as can be, but carved from the same piece of wood which was a sweet touch. Can't wait to have another go, we might be hooked. Robert's given a lot of info on different tools so we'll be carving away at home in no time."

"I’ve just attended a spoon carving workshop run by Robert Andrew and it was a thoroughly enjoyable day and one that I would highly recommend to anyone thinking about this craft. We were a small group, all working on different styles of spoons and yet Robert was able to give each of us the one to one help we needed, all in a relaxed, friendly and safety conscious way. His respect for the integrity of his medium, trees and their wood was at the heart of his practice and that shone through the day. Thank you for a great day! "

"This is the second time I have done the spoon carving course with Robert and I will probably do it for a third time. I will admit I got more out of the course this time around as I was slightly more confident in the process and steps having done it before so that made the day all the more enjoyable, but please don't think you need any experience. You don't. Robert proceeds at the pace suited to you. There were people of all skill levels on the course and everyone left with a expertly carved spoon. Great fun and well worth it."
