Members near the border with Powys may be interested in a course being run by Black Mountains College on Saturday 13th August
Bring two or three unsharpened tools with you to the course in Crickhowell, and learn how to make them sharp again rather than replace them!

TFSR Volunteers clean repair and sharpen them and send tool kits to grassroots community groups in several African countries, and refurbish a wide variety of other tools which are sold here in Wales. At present, their efforts are concentrated on Tanzania.
