About the course
Make your very own hand-crafted brush.
Learn and explore different wood shaping techniques, discover a heritage craft, explore your creativity and leave with a practical object.
After learning about different UK timber species, you will work through different shaping techniques, using jigsaws, straight and curved knives, rasps and spokeshaves. Then you will learn different methods for adding bristles - stitched and glued, before trimming the bristles of your finished brush!
