Anne, assited by Eliza, put on a great course. I learnt more than I was anticipating and enjoyed the atmosphere and cameraderie in the room.

Good class size, plenty of interaction with the knowledgable and friendly instructors, course was paced well to get through the various skills without rushing. I picked up plenty of foundational skills that will be transferable to other types of project.

Tips on how to use the tools correctly and how to assemble the box without mechanical assistance

A great course. Taken slowly so easy to keep up without pressure. Learning new skills to take home to use on other projects is a benefit of the course, in addition to the boxes made over the two days. Eliza is a very knowledgeable teacher.

The Mitred Box Class (2 days - handtools) was just fantastic - wow, just wow. This course teaches you a repeatable process to follow to create the box. How simple was the grain matching technique!

David is a very good teacher! Even though I’ve been woodworking for a number of years, I still picked up some new skills and techniques. Like how to clamp box glue ups with just a length of VB cord and some wood blocks. Definitely worth the price of admission.

Best weekend ever! Not only did I get out of housework, but I spent 2 full days learning and practicing new skills and even making a few boxes. Best part was learning simpler processes and workflow from an expert - which resulted in better results in 48 hours than I had achieved by myself in 10 years. + more

enjoyed two days mitred box making with David and Eliza. I liked David’s teaching style and like to thank him for sharing his skills with us. Gained very valuable lessons in a two day workshop.
