Hi Gaze really glad you had a great experience with our Trainer Pete we will let him know and hope to continue the relationship and high level of training.
First Class Training
I arranged with Daltons Wadkin to come in and train a mixed ability team, from complete novices to an experienced woodworking engineer, it could not have gone any better, all of them were singing the praises of the instructor (Ian), one of them actually said it was the best course he had ever been on.
The confidence he installed in the novices is such that when I go into the workshop now they're setting up and preparing materials like they've been doing it for years.
I cannot express how please I am with this service and would thoroughly recommend their training services.

Really good and helpful team
Really good and helpful team. The Kimla machines they resell are tough as nails and usually never go wrong. The service Tech Bob is great to talk to and does an excellent Job and anytime I have to call Sam Hewitt he sorts me out quick. Definitely a company that selling you a machine is only half the story and the support you get just keeps you coming back.
