Welcome to our Fellowship

What We Offer

For all interested in: flat woodwork, woodturning, woodcarving, restoration, tools, timber

Talks, workshop visits, sharing of knowledge

Our Fellowship brings together woodworkers with a passion for woodwork, whether enthusiastic hobbyist or skilled professional.


SFWW is acknowledged for:

  • Talks
  • Advice
  • Insights
  • Terrific Camaraderie
  • Knowledge
  • Plans
  • Inspiration
  • Discussion
  • Guidance

We meet from September to May (excluding December) at the Cross Barn in Odiham, on the fourth Thursday of the month at 7:30pm.


We have interesting and unique speakers who are either professional woodworkers in their own right or are otherwise connected with the tool and timber trades. We also aim to have one or two meetings a year where members share their projects and where surplus tools and timber are sold.


During the Summer months, we arrange visits to workshops and other locations of interest to woodworkers.


And throughout the year, we hold "experience days", short courses of a few hours duration, given by members, on all topics from dovetailing to woodcarving to tool-sharpening.

Interest Groups

Recognising that woodworkers have a wide range of interests, we have recently created a number of Interest Groups. These enable like-minded members to ask questions and discuss their designs, tools and techniques. These groups are active on WhatsApp, but share their work at our meetings with the wider membership.



Current Interest Groups include:

  • Guitar and instrument making
  • CNC and lasers in woodwork
  • Wood carvers
  • Beginner woodworkers

Who We Are

Sharing knowledge and experience for over 25 years

The Fellowship was founded in 1994 to help woodworkers share knowledge and support each other in the craft. We still have members who were in at the start but the group is going from strength to strength, while staying true to its original mission.


Come and join us and be part of the next chapter of SFWW.

Some members have long experience as amateur woodworkers and others are making their careers in woodworking. Many others have just started and are developing their skills. You are sure to find someone who knows enough to help you, and others who will be interested in your woodworking journey, even if you are right at the beginning.
