Hours of enjoyment at Tom’s whittling course at the Arts Centre, Helmsley.

Excellent teacher. Loved meeting new people and the cake was delicious too.

Tom created a relaxed environment helping me to learn some introductory principles to woodwork. I got to experience a range of machines and hand tools, techniques for different wood cuts and finishing. I really enjoyed the morning.

Really enjoyed building the wooden tray – learnt lots of new skills and got a chance to buy some really cool Japanese tools!

Videos were really informative – made it easy to get it right.

This was a great introduction to whittling. We both thoroughly enjoyed the morning and were very pleased with our achievement after a few short hours and Tom’s excellent tutoring. Many thanks Tom.

Thank you Tom! I really enjoyed the workshop especially your attitude of do it your own way, whilst also giving non intrusive guidance and support.
