What Our Students Are Saying

Steve Rowarth, Fine Art Metalwork/Ceramic Technician, Newcastle University:

“We booked in John for a two day on-site bespoke training course. The quality of this course was a reflection on John's professionalism - fully prepared with a van full of kit, flexible and knowledgeable. Thoroughly recommend this course to anyone.”

Recent Testimonial:

“I can't speak highly enough of John Ricketts and the basic / introductory metal shaping course he runs.
I was considering purchasing an English Wheel and thought I really ought to try to understand some of the basics of the process. Thank goodness I found John. I can't imagine how challenged I'd have been had I decided to purchase a wheel and attempt to do anything meaningful myself... I would have been at a complete loss. ”

John Horsfield, Halifax:

“Not only were existing skills enhanced but you introduced us to methods that can potentially produce an even better end product. I would have no hesitation to recommend you to anyone who is interested to learn this valuable skill.”
