James Mursell runs The Windsor Workshop from his farm in West Sussex, offering courses, specialist tools and Windsor chairs made to order.
Chair making Courses
Chair making courses are run throughout the year. Over five days students convert wood from a freshly felled tree into an elegant chair. Windsor chairmaking is a very accessible branch of woodworking , and no previous experience is necessary in order to successfully complete a course and make a fine piece of furniture; yet even the most experienced woodworker will be challenged!

Tools
Travishers, spokeshaves and other chair making tools are available from The Windsor Workshop. These tools were designed by James Mursell and are made in the workshop to the highest possible standard. You can be certain that these tools will work well as they are used by students on all courses and by James when making his chairs for sale. The spokeshaves, travishers and kits have a worldwide following from discerning chair and furniture makers.
Chairs Made to Order
James also makes chairs for sale. Each chair is made to order, using the the finest locally grown hardwoods. A wide range of chairs is available, but do not hesitate to get in touch about special requirements.
