Refine Woodwork

It warms my heart to have a recent 5 star review for teaching and assisting the making of a shoe rack. This was by a beginner woodworker and we’re both really pleased with how it came out.

“The time he spent teaching me about woodwork was fun and a challenging skill to develop. I’m really proud of what I made, but more than anything I’m grateful for how it helped to ground me and made me feel better.

Thank you for being so patient with me and always being willing to help.

At first I found it hard to know when to stop a task because I didn’t have much experience, but after a while I feel like I grew into that and found your affirmation and encouragement really helpful.

I also really like the half cups of tea, cake and chats.”

Standard racks don't always allow for the number and range in size of jars nor fit the space in the kitchen.
