This Sunday repeat of the brushmaking day course runs 10am-5pm (about 7 hours) for £125. Participants learn about UK timber species and shape a wooden brush handle using jigsaws, straight and curved knives, rasps and spokeshaves, then fit bristles by stitching or gluing before trimming them. It's aimed at anyone drawn to heritage crafts and hands-on creative work, with no particular experience required. Attendees need sturdy shoes/boots and durable trousers (no trainers or shorts). Booking is required, with refunds or changes available up to a week beforehand; illness-related absences are not refunded. Studio 2, where the course is held, has no step-free access and involves three flights of stairs.
