👥 Woodturning Tuition for Two – Learn Together and Save!
Why not share the woodturning experience with a friend or family member? It’s more fun to learn together, and you’ll save money too. My private 2-person sessions are designed for all skill levels—so whether you're both beginners or have some experience, you’ll enjoy the same personal instruction you'd get in a one-to-one class… but at a shared cost.
 
You’ll work side by side using professional tools and lathes in a relaxed setting, with all safety gear and materials provided. Everyone leaves with a project—and a big sense of achievement.
 
Need a larger group? I also offer woodturning sessions for 3 or 4 people.
 
🧰 Why Choose This Class?
• A unique shared learning experience
• Lower cost per person than booking separately
• Personalised guidance for each student
• A fun, relaxed way to try woodturning
• Ideal for couples, parent/child, friends, or family members
Whether it’s a gift, a new hobby, or something to do on your Kerry holiday, you’ll be guided at your own pace, side-by-side.
 
🔧 What We Can Cover During Your Session
• Wood drying & selection – Choosing suitable timber

• Sharpening & safety – Proper technique and safe tool handling
• Turning techniques – Between-centres and 4-jaw chuck basics

🎓 Feedback From Students
“Three hours flew by just as I was getting into the flow...”
That’s why I now recommend 4–5 hour sessions for new students. I’ve now discontinued 3-hour bookings, except for special cases. Longer sessions give you time to settle in, absorb the basics, and get hands-on with your project without feeling rushed.

🆕 New! Basic Bowl Turning Class
I’ve separated bowl turning into its own dedicated class. If you want to focus only on bowl turning, you can now book a Private Bowl Turning Class, or a 2-Person Bowl Turning Class if you’re learning with someone else. Please Note: Prior woodturning experience is required.
