Product Description

This is the perfect opportunity here at The Woodturning Shop (Hampshire Sheen) to have another lesson with Emma Cook, The Tiny Turner, where she will take you through her process of turning, carving and decorating a square platter. This course is designed for those with a reasonable amount of turning experience given the more technical nature of the tool work.

Square platter turning is great fun, and one to focus the mind on excellent tool presentation, but with Emma on hand, she’ll guide you all the way. After turning and finishing it, learn some of Emma’s fantastic carving skills as you learn how to put the final touches to the piece as shown in the photo here.

Our courses include everything you need to create your own piece. The timber, tools, lunch at the on-site coffee shop . . . all you need to do is turn up and have a great time learning new skills.

This course is ideal for students with a reasonable amount of woodturning experience looking to try something different.

Timings: 9.00am – 4pm (approx)
