Box Making Level 1 Tubs
Learn the art of box making with round leather boxes
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 as you will be creating an cylinder, an inner cylinder and capping these off working to fine tolerances on the round.
The course will cover the correct measuring for both internal and external aspect of tubs. A detail useful when making boxes for a specific purpose.
