With your hands, traditional tools and a nice piece of wood, you can make beautiful things. Woodworking is very rewarding. You really create something physical and give your creativity free rein. It is relaxing and challenging.

You will discover that every wood species has its own characteristics and that there are several ways to realize your own showpiece. It needs some time and effort, but it’s all worth it!
