The Wheel Building Masterclass with Vince Warner Ready to Elevate Your Wheel Building Skills? Imagine Building Every Wheel with Confidence and Precision. That's What Mastery Feels Like. I started to learn to build wheels in 1967. My dad always said if you can count to 4 you can learn to build wheels, and as soon as I could count to 4 he had to prove to everybody that he was right. I was approaching my 4th birthday when he took me into his workshop and started to show me his trade secrets. I don't for one moment think you need to start at 3 years old to become an excellent wheel builder, but I do believe you need to be shown the techniques clearly by an experienced craftsman. Join Me in My Workshop for the Ultimate Learning Experience. What You'll Gain: Confidence in every wheel you build A high professional standard in all your projects The ability to charge for your expertise (if you wish to) The Masterclass Includes: Full access to all video training modules Personalised instruction from me, Vince Warner 4 full days of intensive training Exclusive private one-to-one attention A certificate showing you have completed the masterclass And Lunch is on Me, Every Day! Enjoy complimentary lunch, along with tea, coffee, cold drinks, and snacks throughout the day.
