2024-02-24 09:00 - 17:00 (Europe/London) | Bevel Woodworking School, Fethard-on-Sea, Co. Wexford, Ireland
One-Day Tool Tune-Up
This course is designed to show you how to sharpen and fine-tune your own woodwork tools.
It is relevant for brand-new and used tools.
Most tools when purchased new are not fit for use and need the grinding angle to be corrected and other adjustments to be made.
We will focus on flat and carving woodworking chisels, also a range of hand planes and the spokeshave. You are welcome to bring along your own Work-working Tools on the day to sharpen and tune.
The course will facilitate you using a number of different sharpening methods, which will include the electric waterstone, the oilstone, the diamond stone and the leather strop. You will also learn how to maintain each of the sharpening tools, so that you can maintain your own tools at home.
Note:this course is not suitable for gardening tools.
Course Cost €90.00

2024-02-25 09:00 - 17:00
This is a brand new one-day course. We have successfully trialled it with The Ramsgrange Mens Shed and we are happy to offer it now.
The Trug is a great beginners course. You will be learning to use the following tools, a jigsaw, a handplane, a tennon saw, a spokeshave, a battery drill, a battery screwdriver and the pillar drill. You may already be familiar with some or all of these, but if you are not, this is the perfect chance to come and learn safely and with the bonus of taking home the beautiful Trug.
Made from Pine, the Trug can be used to carry anything, vegetables from the garden, apples from the orchard, or your knitting around your house. It will be an addition in any home and can be used in lots of ways.
This is great opportunity to see the workshop, and meet the course instructor, and discover if other courses might appeal to you as well
