"Really enjoyed this course, it was loads of fun and came away with a sense of achievement, I have wanted to try blacksmithing for ages as I find it fascinating. This one day introduction was bought as a gift, best present husband has ever given. The experience has given me a taste for it and want to try the tin smithing next, hint hint..... The blacksmith John is a lovely chap, very friendly and knowledgeable and like most talented craftspeople, he makes it looks easy. Thanks so much for the fab experience and archaeology chat."

Siân Evans reviewed: Tinsmithing Workshop - One Day

"I spent a wonderful day with tinsmith John Wills, learning about the basic steps of this traditional craft. John is an excellent tutor – warm, good-humoured and incredibly knowledgeable. As well as taking the group through the techniques of cutting, hammering and seaming, he told us all about the interesting history of the trade. By the end of the session, all members of the group were able to take home the objects they had made, as well as a handout covering the subjects they had learnt about. This is a first-rate course, and I would highly recommend it."
