1 Day DIY Basics

DIy FOr beginners

Learn to use common tools the right way

Work on our purpose built mock cavity wall with built in bricks and wood which allows you to get a feel of the most commons scenarios.

We will chat and play with the tools, do some work at the bench, then move over to the board and put everything into practice.

It is a physical day but don’t worry. We want this to be fun, enlightening and educational, so we can take as many breaks as you like within the class time.
