The workshop in detail

    During this one-day workshop, Manon will show you how to make a metal and wood table. 

    Everything will start with getting familiar with the workshop as well as some theoretical explanations and safety instructions about metal work. 

    You will start with a drawing to understand and visualise your future furniture. 

    Then, you will follow through the different steps of making it, from taking measurements to the finishing touches, including metal cutting, TIG welding, preparing and assembling the wooden shelves. 

    TIG welding is a precision technique that results in clean welds with a beautiful finish. 

    After assembling a few parts, your wood and metal furniture will have taken shape! 

    Table dimensions: 55cm long, 40cm wide and 54cm high. 



    At midday, you will take a break with Manon. Remember to bring your lunch!

    Wecandoo - Meet Manon

    Meet Manon

    Metalworker

    Meet Manon, metalworker, and proud to be ! 

    Manon trained in metal work at the École Nationale Supérieure des Arts Appliqués et des Métiers d'Art (Art and Design) in Paris. She trained and became passionate about metal sculpture. With her diploma in hand, curious and enthusiastic about metal work, she also followed a course in forging and is currently training in ironwork.

    In her daily life, she also likes to work with ceramics. These two skills and materials help her every day to create beautiful aerial creations, first on paper, then in clay and finally in metal. 

    Her beautiful shared workshop, nestled at the back of a beautiful courtyard, is a space in which metal is delicately transformed, to our utmost delight.

    Une journee magnifique. Initiallement on arrive les mains dans les poches en se disant que franchement ca risque d'etre complique, voir impossible, et quelques heures plus tard on rentre chez soi avec sa propre table. Manon sait bien expliquer tout le processus, nous aide dans les moments difficiles mais pour autant nous laisse essayer, y compris nous tromper pour mieux apprendre. Merci encore pour cette journee extraordinaire qui nous donne un petit apercu du processus tout en nous prouvant que nous aussi, avec un peu d'effort et beaucoup de technique, nous pouvons aussi y arriver.

    J'ai passé une super journée avec Manon. Grâce à elle, j'ai pu découvrir la soudure, ce que j'attendais depuis longtemps. Ses explications étaient toujours très claires et elle est très attentive aux mesures de sécurité. De plus, la formule individuelle lui permet de bien s'occuper du participant. N'hésitez pas à vous inscrire à son atelier.
