This is without doubt one of the more rewarding courses, it’s level of detail is quite intense, but by the same token it is very rewarding.
The level of precision required is much higher, rather than getting two or three pieces of flexible leather to fit together, you will be getting ten to do so.
The course will cover the correct measuring for both internal and external aspect of boxes. A detail useful when making boxes for a specific purpose.
You will gain a clear understanding of the required skills and be better equipped to develop independently.
