Excelente curso de Carpintería Artesanal, ya hice el de talla de cucharas en madera y me encantó. Sigo en instagram a los chicos de Taller Piccolo y al ver sus creaciones no dude en comprar el curso. Ya quiero terminar de hacer mi nuevo sillón. No duden, vale la pena.

It's a great introduction to mixing materials in artisanal furniture making. While it's targeted to begginers, Frank's manufacturing jig can definetely be used in more advanced designs. I really like the honesty of both teachers. There are some things to complain though: targeting begginers, one should not minimize the use of PPE, English subtitles are usable but at times are funny: due to dual word meaning in Spanish, mill becomes strawberry or words not translated. Good value for beginners!
