Our Apprentice Henry proudly displays his skills
Very proud of our Apprentice Henry Aggas, Just 17 years old and he has come a very long way in just 1 year of learning the craft of Joinery and Gate making . All I gave him was the height and width required and with no guidance at all he has made these beautiful Sapele Hardwood gates which just need a coat of stain and they will be ready to take their pride of place at the customers home. Its great to pass on traditional skills to the next generation and Henry will be with me to hang the gates and admire his work, Good job "H"
