This is a short version of an upcoming documentary uncovering 10 day timber framing and log building course led by American Timber framer and Carpenter Collin Beggs in Latvia, Old manor Ratnieki at July 2018.
Almost all of the students are non experienced woodworkers from all over the world coming from different backgrounds and having different professions, but all came for a passion for wood and to learn traditional carpentry using hand tools and to believe what can be achieved with their hands if you have a good teacher to follow and a will to succeed.
Our way of teaching is hands on learning. Theory is just few hours in first day.
Hands not machines.
Music by Jack Joseph Band
Full documentary coming soon!
