Welcome! / Forums / General Woodworking Discussions / PCDL Carpentry – Free Course at Stamford College
Hiya, I thought i’d post his here in case there are fellow interested people in the Rutland/Stamford area who fancy doing the course that I’m about halfway through.
Its a basic 5-6 week course thats free and gives you a chance to build up your confidence, learn a few joints and give you space to try out all the tools and meet some like minded folk.
you can find out more here

I’d like to do that but it’s a bit far from here!
At the moment I read a book on carpentry from 1895. It’s great and it’s a nice mixture between theory and practical approach. It’s interesting to learn which wood in which thickness and length can withstand different stresses.
It’s also helpful for furnituremaking to some extent.
I enjoy working wood in Germany.
