Description
Why take this course?
- Woodworking with hand tools has a special charm. The course is held at a forest camp, without the deafening noise of electric tools – you only hear the scraping of knives, each strike of the axe, and the cutting sound of the saw, all accompanied by the enchanting scent of wood.
- You’ll have the opportunity to experience the satisfaction of materializing your ideas and seeing the product of your handiwork.
- After a full day of work, each evening we share impressions to the sound of guitar and the warmth of a campfire.
