Jake does different short courses "The aim of an exciting one day course is for you to learn the basic techniques of working with hot glass. No experience will be necessary for the student to have this rare insight and opportunity to work with this magical medium. You will have the rare and unique opportunity to make a bowl, plate, vase or tumbler to your design incorporating colour, shape and form as desired".
On one of these short courses you will be using our equipment. If you then decide to order equipment from us we will deduct the cost of the short course
The glass making equipment is very compact and Jake's whole studio fits into the space shown below
