Shrink pots with Craig

  • Green Aspirations Scotland CIC Dykehead, Scotland, FK8 3JY United Kingdom (map)

Learn to make your very own container out of wood in this shrink pot workshop with Craig. Shrink pots are made from hollowing a freshly cut log and then fitting a dry wooden base so that, as the log dries, it shrinks around the base. Magic! And a technique that’s been used throughout history for everything from liquids to spices to trinkets.

In this half-day workshop, you’ll learn safe hollowing techniques and how to fit the dry base, as well as making a lid that will fit your new container.

This workshop is aimed at beginners, aged 14+.

Max. 8 participants
