Have you tried your local Colleges? | |||

Try searching for cabinet making courses. That would be the best introduction, but very few colleges run them. It would also take a couple of years too. Also you could try just a woodworking course..... | |||

Thanks, Yes I have looked at the local collages and if you want to bag two peices of 2"x4" together then there are lodes. I did not think to look at cabinet making and will do strate away. Thanks. Know matter where the light may be the darkness always awaits it. | |||

Have a look at this site, http://www.saroftreve.com/workshop/index.htm I haven't seen any updates for a while, but it's still worth a look. "We're all living in a freakshow Man, it's called life. Buy a ticket and enjoy the ride." Foamy The Squirrel | |||

I am not sure what kind of course you are looking for but you could try Kingston University http://www.ucreative.ac.uk/ba-product-design London Met offer foundation degrees/BA/MA/short courses http://searchweb.londonmet.ac.uk/search/search.c... University of the creative arts has one too If you go on http://www.ucas.com/ and type furniture into the course search it will tell you what's available country wide in terms of university courses Hope this is useful Misshell

I was going to make the same recommendation. Lots of fairly simple designs, quite a few things can be made using only vary basic skills and tools. If you've never done any woodworking before then it might be worth experimenting with a scale model or something...but the St Andrews Cross for example is pretty simple to make. | |||

A sideways look at this... Mr Hyde, I bet you've got some skills, you must be able to do some stuff. Even if it's just bein able to scew a cup hook in to a breakfast bar stool and thus makin a basic spankin stool. Sooo how can you utilise these skills to make stuff ? Who knows ta might come up wit some wonderful original stuff,if you approach it from a diffrent angle.To have something unique to you, like nothin else around that peps. really like.
