The course workshop

Each participant is provided with their own workbench as well as a tool chest fully equipped with high-quality tools. In addition, tools from our complete product range are available as display items for hands-on testing and comparison.

Sharpening room

Sharp tools are essential for precise and clean work. That is why our specially designed sharpening room offers course participants the opportunity to sharpen tools using Japanese water stones as well as Tormek systems. Ten fully equipped workstations provide access to the complete range of sharpening tools from our catalogue.
