My name is Matt Estlea, I’m a 24 year old Woodworker from Basingstoke in England and my aim is to make your woodworking less s***.

I come from 5 years tuition at Rycotewood Furniture Centre with a further 1 year working as an Artist in Residence at the Sylva Foundation. I now teach City and Guilds Furniture Making at Rycotewood as of September 2018.

If you’re interested in studying at Rycotewood, view their courses here:
www.mattestlea.com/rycotewood

I also had 5 years of experience working at Axminster Tools and Machinery where I helped customers with purchasing tools, demonstrated in stores and events, and gained extensive knowledge about a variety of tools and brands. I discontinued this at the start of 2019 to focus solely on video creation and teaching.

During the week, I film woodworking projects, tutorials, reviews and a viewer favourite ‘Tool Duel’ where I compare two competitive manufacturers tools against one another to find out which is best. I also have a Free Online Woodworking School which you should definitely check out!

How to make a Wooden Spreader | Paul Sellers

Filed under: Tools, Woodworking — Tags: , — Nicholas @ 07:00

Paul Sellers
Published 9 Jul 2020

The main focus of this simple project is to learn how to both laminate and then shape wood into useful kitchen projects using only conventional hand tools.

The result is a nice implement, and the skills are readily transferable to a wide range of other projects ranging from table tennis bat handles to fly swats.
