After too long a pause we are delighted to be back offering our popular 'Beginner Steam Bending Course'. The perfect introduction to steam-bending. Get a complete overview of the process, bend 10 different species, use 3 types of compression strap, try 2D and 3D bends, twisting, splitting plus more and use your new skills at the end making your own 'Maker Session' creation to take home, choose from a lampshade, pot or sculpture. This is our most popular course and a brilliant way to look at wood, woodwork and trees in a completely new and refreshing way.
