“This was a very detailed, technical course on the operation and use of a number of important machines found in workshops. Excellent detail on making sure no one hurt themselves (H&S). John Lloyd is a pretty good communicator!!”

“John is incredibly knowledgeable, but also made it easy to understand – plus he came across a decent guy. Cakes, biscuits and sense that this was a family venture without super-tight time keeping made this very enjoyable and refreshingly uncorporate. I picked up lots of tips and found it easy to ask questions. I also discovered that what I want is a good bandsaw rather than a good table saw and that in itself will have saved me the course fee!”

This course is an introduction to using the machinery that might be found in a small to medium sized woodworking workshop and is suitable for those who have their own machinery or are considering purchasing. General Health & Safety issues will be covered, followed by setting-up, maintenance and use of the machines, with individual tuition on each machine.

“Excellent course by a skilled experienced tutor with a great amount of information imparted over the weekend. A good relaxed learning environment.”

The main elements covered for each machine will include safe working practices, adjusting/setting up, choice of blade & blade changing, jigs and dust extraction.

“Well structured and comprehensively covered the subjects.Time well used with sensitive feel for the needs of the participants.”

“I got exactly what I wanted – advice on what to look for in machine tools, which tools are more useful than others, as well as lots of tips and tricks.”
