Join us in-store for our annual Christmas Woodworking Show. This year we have an action-packed day with 15 demonstrators showcasing their skills and offering advice on everything from woodturning to tool sharpening and everything in between.

In amongst the interactive workstations will be local professional woodcarver Keith Barrett talking about his work, while members of the Northumbrian Woodturners Association share their wealth of experience. The Kibblesworth Woodcrafters will be encouraging you to have a go while providing practical guidance on scroll sawing, bandsaw boxes, pyrography, Japanese hand tools and UJK dovetail jigs.

We'll also have some cracking Christmas deals on the day and with a complimentary mince pie and a cup of tea, it'll be a great way to get into the Christmas spirit.

Festool rep Trevor Wilkinson will be in-store, over two days, showcasing the latest range of power tools including the new tloc system, as well as introducing the Festool vacuum due for release in 2020.

Trevor will be demonstrating as well as answering any questions you have regarding the range and/or accessories. This is a fantastic opportunity to see top-quality German power tools in operation.

Pop into the store anytime between 11- 5pm on Friday and 9-2pm on Saturday to enjoy our FREE event.

A Christmas workshop full of festive fun for the whole family. Join us in-store as we turn your Christmas into something a little special. For anyone aged 11 or up you'll be able to create your own wooden snowman on a lathe under the careful guidance from one of our staff. Then you can bring it to life using paints and a pyrography pen. For younger children we will have some snowmen already turned and waiting to be decorated. We'll also be encouraging accompanying adults to participate so that you can create a little frozen family to take home.

*All children must be registered via Eventbrite to participate. Children must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian at all times while in the store. All tools and materials will be provided by Axminster store. Photographs will be taken during the workshop, please advise a member of staff if you do not wish your child to be included within any future marketing.
