Would you like to learn the delicate art of woodcarving? Would you like to learn how to handle a carving knife and bring a piece of wood to life?
In this 3-hour workshop, woodcarving enthusiast Jesse takes us on a journey of discovery into a traditional Swedish craft, while creating a Dala horse! Carving horses is a great way to master the oldest woodworking tool: the carving knife. With its smooth curves, it’s also a zen-like way to express your creativity.
After an introduction to Scandinavian carving and the legend of the Dala horse, you’ll learn about basic tools and safety precautions. We’ll then move on to learning cutting, shaping and finishing techniques.
Skills required: none, apart from a little patience!
The price includes all necessary materials, professional advice and thousands of chips.
