# Event Details - **Event Name**: Make a chopping Block and develop your axe carving skills - **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 03 May, 2026 at 10:00 am – Sun, 03 May, 2026 at 04:30 pm (+01:00) - **Event Description**: A great opportunity to hand craft your own chopping block, and learn the basics of safe axe carvingAbout this EventA chopping block is an essential woodland device for anyone wanting to develop their greenwood carving hobby. Whilst not a particulalry difficult thing to make, the challenge for many is accessing a suitably large hunk of wood - to make a solid and stable block, a large and heavy log slice is desirable.We will use localy harvested timber, mostly from our own woodlands, and from trees that need to come down for safety, or are windblown.Of course once you have carved and attached the legs to the block, it still isn't really a chopping block until you've chopped some wood on it! We will spend the rest of the day introducing you to safe axe techique, leading hopefully to a completed project or two.Finally, a little advice on purchasing an axe if you haven't already got one.This is a great way to unwind, connect with nature and explore your more creative side. The course will run from my woodland workshop in Ghyll Wood on the fabulous Wyresdale Park estate. We can make use of both indoor and outdoor space depending on the weather, and a wood burner will keep us toasty warm on the coldest of days.As with all our courses we can arrange a private booking for an individual or small group on an alternative date. Please just get in touch.What you need to knowThis course is suitable for anyone 18years+ with an interest in learning a little bit more about the thrills of working with greenwood, and looking to expand their skills set, although no previous wood-crafting skills are necessary. Please wear clothing that is suitable for the expected weather conditions and that you don't mind getting a little messy, and good fitting, sturdy footwear with a grippy sole. Basic refreshments will be provided on the day, and you can make use of the Applestore café. https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events4/banners/ef87ceb0-9de2-11f0-ace1-efa507b012ad-rimg-w1200-h675-dc456030-gmir.jpg https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events5/banners/f00255e0-9de2-11f0-a8a2-a38a456a1b40-rimg-w416-h740-dc785f48-gmir.jpg https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events6/banners/f0b8fbb0-9de2-11f0-9488-c5bafeb22235-rimg-w1200-h675-dcbda691-gmir.jpg https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events4/banners/f166eef0-9de2-11f0-9488-c5bafeb22235-rimg-w1200-h675-dcbfa791-gmir.jpg https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events5/banners/f1f8f5c0-9de2-11f0-a8a2-a38a456a1b40-rimg-w1200-h675-dc465f33-gmir.jpg https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events2/banners/f27be160-9de2-11f0-9488-c5bafeb22235-rimg-w1200-h675-dca58e7a-gmir.jpg https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events1/banners/f3131850-9de2-11f0-9488-c5bafeb22235-rimg-w1200-h675-dcbaa792-gmir.jpg https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events9/banners/f3919720-9de2-11f0-ace1-efa507b012ad-rimg-w1200-h675-dcd7a691-gmir.jpg https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events3/banners/f3fcdc10-9de2-11f0-ace1-efa507b012ad-rimg-w416-h740-dca87846-gmir.jpg https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events8/banners/f4860940-9de2-11f0-9488-c5bafeb22235-rimg-w1200-h675-dca8a7a5-gmir.jpg https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events1/banners/f5542eb0-9de2-11f0-ace1-efa507b012ad-rimg-w416-h740-dc8f8e8f-gmir.jpg https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/f5e990e0-9de2-11f0-ace1-efa507b012ad-rimg-w1200-h675-dc797976-gmir.jpg https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events9/banners/f6861f00-9de2-11f0-9488-c5bafeb22235-rimg-w1200-h675-dcc1c1bd-gmir.jpg https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events6/banners/f71df230-9de2-11f0-9488-c5bafeb22235-rimg-w1200-h675-dc474433-gmir.jpg - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/scorton/make-a-chopping-block-and-develop-your-axe-carving-skills/100001704205226709 - **Event Categories**: workshops, contests, art, crafts - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 110, max: 110, currency: GBP ## Event venue details - **city**: Scorton - **state**: EN - **country**: United Kingdom - **location**: Applestore Cafe - **lat**: 53.9364434 - **long**: -2.7497765000000527 - **full address**: Applestore Cafe, Snowhill Lane, Scorton, United Kingdom ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Make a chopping Block and develop your axe carving skills - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/98b93802d9462d2eea5dfe206d3ea44e2a07359532a323ba8387cb61c701b2b9-rimg-w1200-h675-dca68d7a-gmir.jpg?v=1759225878 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Make a chopping Block and develop your axe carving skills being held? - **A:** Make a chopping Block and develop your axe carving skills takes place on Sun, 03 May, 2026 at 10:00 am to Sun, 03 May, 2026 at 04:30 pm at Applestore Cafe, Snowhill Lane, Scorton, United Kingdom. - **Q**: How much do tickets cost for Make a chopping Block and develop your axe carving skills? - **A:** Tickets for Make a chopping Block and develop your axe carving skills are priced at GBP 110 per person.
