I'm looking forward to exhibiting at the Royal Cornwall Show this week (4th–6th June) in the Woodlands Area.

The Woodlands Area is all about trees, timber, forestry and woodland management, with plenty of advice and demonstrations throughout the show. With so much interest in tree planting and woodland creation, it's a great place to explore how woodlands are managed and how timber can be transformed into useful, beautiful objects.

I'll be at my workbench all day, every day, demonstrating traditional woodworking techniques, answering questions, and chatting about my woodworking courses – including my popular hand-cut dovetail course.

If you're visiting the show, come and say hello, watch some woodworking in action, and find out more about learning traditional hand tool skills.

See you in the Woodlands Area!

A short guide to getting here! The main road bit is easy, but people often come unstuck when they think they're going 'off road'! You're not, this is where we are!
I am open all this week, 23rd-31st May 11-5, so come and say Hello...

A 5-Day One-to-One Creative Journey.
There’s something incredibly powerful about giving someone the time, space, and support to bring an idea to life, especially when it’s something they never thought they could achieve. My one-to-one, five-day course is designed to do exactly that: take a spark of inspiration and turn it into a finished piece, crafted with skill, confidence, and pride.

So how do you go from a simple idea to a finished, handcrafted piece in just five days?​

Celebrating International Women’s Day.
Honouring the incredible women who’ve stepped into the workshop, picked up new skills, challenged themselves, and created beautiful things with their own hands.
It’s been a privilege to teach, learn from, and be inspired by each of you.
Here’s to more sawdust, more confidence, and more women shaping their own space in woodworking. 🪚
