A one-day introduction to bowl carving to carve your own small bowl.
Participant will use hand tools - axes, adzes, gauges, and knives - to carve this small wood out of green wood. We’ll focus on the safe and effective use of tools so that you can create your very own bowl, learning how to shape both the inside and outside of the bowl. We’ll also talk about materials, discuss best drying techniques and best finishes for your dry bowl.
All tools and materials are provided. This workshop can be quite energetic and most of it is done standing up.
You'll arrive on site by 10am, and be directed to workshop. From there, one of our experienced trainers will lead you through the workshop. All materials and tools are provided. The day finishes by 4pm. Please bring lunch - you are welcome to cook over our campfire. We provide tea and coffee and snacks!
