Newark College
RAB Award 2023:
Though Peter is still in his foundation year he shows promise, and has requested a work placement. He was awarded work experience with Adam Winskill.
Peter writes this of his placement:
“During my workshop placement at Adam Winskill’s I got an introduction into violin repair and restoration. I learnt how to do various basic repairs such as opening up instruments in the least damaging way possible, repairing splintered and rough surfaces on gluing areas of plates and general instrument setup adjustment. I also got an understanding of the standard of work and accuracy that is expected at different types of workshops and how customer interactions and timescales play out.”
