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. <\/p>\n<p>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. <\/p>\n<p>During the week, I film woodworking projects, tutorials, reviews and a viewer favourite &#8216;Tool Duel&#8217; where I compare two competitive manufacturers tools against one another to find out which is best. <\/p>\n<p>I like to have a laugh and my videos are quite fast paced BUT you will learn a lot, I assure you. <\/p>\n<p>Lets go make a mess.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Matt Estlea Published on 25 May 2019 In this video, I show you how to cut a Mitred Dovetail entirely by hand.
