Thanks for a great weekend. The course was fantastic and I learnt loads of useful stuff. I’m now inspired to develop and try new things. I hope you make some headway with your hardware projects. I’m sure I will see you again and look forward to th
I recently met Andrew Crawford, a maker of the most beautiful boxes and cases imaginable. I had Andrew make a case for a wooden flute with a one-piece body and footjoint. It is so gorgeous that I have to tell everyone about it.
That was the best woodworking course I have done – and I have done a few.
Thanks for a great weekend,i really enjoyed it and learned a lot.
Andrew is a flute player himself, so he does understand about instrument cases. The case he made for me is as light and compact as it is possible to make it, yet the flute seems perfectly protected … it is truly wonderful.
Everybody was so impressed with the inlay and the lid (we) you did!! I honestly feel my box making will improve 100% as a benefit of spending time with you.
Excellent workmanship, and beautiful woods, definately an art in it self.I would love to have your talents!!!
Many thanks for an interesting weekend of box making. I really enjoyed it and I’m looking forward to seeing the box completely finished.
Hi Andrew – Just stopped by to see what’s on the menu today. WOW boxes, COOL BOXES!!! I know when I want a box that’s like no other I’ll look you up!!! I’m impressed!! Oh yea site looks great too!!! Keep up the great work Andrew, catch up with you later.
I’m a total beginner, but now I feel a beginner with the confidence and knowledge necessary (here’s hoping) to be able to eventually produce similarly wonderful boxes at home. Or at least get started
Just had to say your boxes, especialy the painter’s boxes, are the most beautiful artistry I’ve seen! Exquisite design, beautiful, beautiful wood. You are a true master of the craft, and I should hope your boxes will some day, in the future, be treasures in a museum (if they can get them away from the owners!). Thank You.
Your course was a real pleasure to attend,friendly, low key but practical and being able to ask those obvious questions that run alongside the different aspects is always important.
[smartHinge] – it really is a brilliant system
Back in Australia now and almost settled enough to get the new workshop into action. It was wonderful to do the course and interact with you and the others. Very inspirational to spend time with a top craftsman.
I just wanted to let you know that your handmade wooden boxes are among the finest looking I have seen yet. You are indeed a craftsman.
What I gained the most was to try and achieve the highest quality workmanship, not to settle for second best. Also very informative to see all the jigs and little workshop tips and tricks.
Absolutely Beautiful Craftsmanship! Gorgeous!
Thanks … for a great weekend. I thoroughly enjoyed the course (which I hope was obvious!) and learned so much in terms of technique and tools. I now have to put some of that into practice .. but it does at least provide another excuse to buy more stuff from Axminster…..
Im really even more motivated now and have a better Idea of sorting my gear out. Once again thank you for the special weekend …
… the three days spent in your workshop were wonderful and exceeded my expectations.
