Little woods trip to see and his amazing table creation today. Congratulations Stan - it is a thing of beauty!

Stan is woods alumni and has created a table that will be incredible for events and community gatherings - we hope to see it 'on tour' to the woods; do contact him if you have an event in mind where it would look amazing!

Great to spot other woods stars .booth.makes and in the 'making of' film, as well as another Kaitlin with a chainsaw!
