Join us in store on Saturday 14th March as we celebrate the 5th anniversary of our opening in North Shields. On the day, all customers will receive a 10% DISCOUNT (excluding power tools) on their highest priced item. PLUS the first 100 customers through the door will receive a Goody Bag of handy workshop items with over 50 of these containing a mystery Store Voucher - two valued at £100 and plenty more offering 20% discounts on selected product lines! We’ve also included two vouchers for a three hour Introduction to Woodturning with one of our store specialists.

And if that’s not enough you can also look forward to store demonstrations including carving, hand tools, sharpening and pyrography. There’ll be something for everyone at our Big Birthday event - including free teas, coffees and cake, so don’t miss out. We look forward to celebrating with you!

Working with wood and resin is right on trend and in this national demonstration, our store specialists will provide an introduction to resin, using our new range of EcoPoxy products. Together these offer an ideal solution for woodworkers, artists and craftspeople looking to explore new creative possibilities in their work.

During this demonstration we'll make a small project, providing technical guidance and useful tips which will help you achieve professional results in your workshop from the outset. We'll provide details of the tools and accessories you might need and highlight some of the pitfalls when starting out working with resin. We'll also share some of the reasons why we stock EcoPoxy products, which are proven to provide outstanding all-round performance, clarity and durability while remaining environmentally friendly. We look forward to seeing you there!

*To get the best value from this demonstration we suggest arriving at 10 am and staying until the end. This is a group demonstration and seats are unallocated and limited, so please arrive early to avoid disappointment.
