    Default Hand tool classes

    Hi there,
    Does anyone know anyone that teaches hand tool classes? in or around Melbourne?
    Learning the correct way to use profile planes, block planes, chisels etc?

    Cheers
    Mel

    i took a week of classes with phoebe everill a few months ago and found it helpful. she doesn't list a handtool-specific class on her site, but you could email and see if something can be worked out

    Phoebe Everill comes with good credentials. See this cabinet produced for Terry Gordon and Colin Clenton:

    AWR-CollaborationOne1.pdf (phoebeeverill.com)

    Unfortunately it looks as though courses for a good part of 2021 are already booked out with only December left. Carol Russell was due to take some woodcarving classes, but presumeably the virus has interfered there.
