Bringing the magic of historical woodworking to life

This Irish craftsman found his calling during lockdown, building a currach (a traditional Irish boat) in his parents' garden. Since then, he's dedicated himself to mastering and sharing the artistry of age-old woodworking methods.

Eoin's captivating online tutorials have garnered a massive following on TikTok (over 3 million!) and YouTube (over 450,000 subscribers). Whether it's using a pole lathe, crafting a maul with just hand tools, or upcycling antique chairs, Eoin brings the magic of historical woodworking to life for a whole new generation.

He'll be taking up residence at Bunratty Castle and Folk Park this summer, demonstrating his craft and sharing his knowledge in the castle courtyard.
