In May of 2011 Perth Wood School ran a six day course in steam bent furniture making.  Twelve people were lucky enough to take the time to learn from a truly extraordinary craftsman and lecturer while building a beautiful stool from solid English oak.  David works from his home workshop in Nelson New Zealand where he creates amazing furniture designs that sell throughout the world.  He also travels to the US each year to lecture at the Centre for Furniture Craftsmanship in Maine.  We are very excited to announce that David will come to Perth Wood School again this year to present another course in steam bending.  This year the six full day course will be conducted in August starting on Monday the 20th.  The course fee is $1350 with a $200 deposit required to secure places.  We have had huge interest and the course is nearly full already.    If you are interested in this very unique furniture making technique please contact us for more details.  For more about David click on www.davidhaig.co.nz

We are really proud to announce that Perth Wood School won the Judges Choice Award at the recent Belmont Small Business Awards.  Winning businesses were announced at the awards presentation night held at Burswood on the 10th of November.  Achievements such as this would not be possible without our fantastic staff and customers!
