Hey everyone! I just came back from a fantastic week-long chair making class, and now I'm on the lookout for more opportunities. My girlfriend and I are planning a trip to either Ireland, Wales, or Scotland in the next few months, and I would love to find a class where I can build another chair, ideally something like a stick chair. I'm also open to renting workshop or bench space for a few days and can offer a finished chair as payment. Any recommendations on classes or places to work would be awesome. Thanks in advance!

Hey! You might want to check out some social media channels. I follow a couple of folks who run classes in green woodworking and chair making. They’ve got a lot of cool stuff going on!
If you do a quick Google search for "chair making classes UK", you’ll find tons of options! There are a lot of classes focused on Windsor chairs, but there's also a good selection for green woodworking across various regions. Just remember to specify if you want to avoid England and search by region, like "chair making classes Scotland" to get the right results.

Thanks! I'll look into that, sounds promising.
