Episode 7
Today's aspiring amateur makers hoping to change their lives are blacksmith Alex from Northumberland and furniture maker Cora from Hampshire.
Alex is incredibly passionate about his craft but suffers from imposter syndrome and always sees the flaws in his work. He was introduced to blacksmithing on an experience day for his 16th birthday with a local professional, Adrian Wood. Adrian is the blacksmith lined up as his mentor, but after helping Alex fall in love with the craft, can he now inspire him to make a full-time living from it?
Cora is determined to follow her furniture-making dreams and gave up a city job in London to try to make it all come true. She's got plenty of potential but doesn't really enjoy the details and often jumps forward to the next job before she has finished the one she's doing. Mentor Alice thinks she has a great eye for design and wants to persuade Cora to focus on designing rather than making every piece herself. It's tough advice to hear, but will Cora take it on board?
