Join Ben for an engaging 4.5-hour woodworking workshop that covers the essentials of crafting a wooden spoon.
The workshop begins with an introduction to tools and safety procedures, ensuring a secure and informed start. Participants will then dive into hands-on activities, starting with a simple wood off-cut. Under Ben's expert guidance, they'll learn blade sharpening techniques and how to maintain blade sharpness effectively.
The main highlight is crafting your very own wooden spoon, putting your skills to the test and creating a functional work of art.
Participants will also explore sanding and finishing techniques with oil to give their spoons a polished appearance.
At the end of the workshop, you'll take home your unique, handcrafted spoon.
