Special workshops are offered for anyone who wants to learn metalworking.

The content of these workshops has been designed for people who want to understand the basics of the techniques for amateur use, or who are looking to improve their skills in certain areas.

You will enjoy a special moment and personalized guidance!

The artist’s technique consists of shaping iron through cutting, cold bending, and electrode arc welding.

This method makes it possible to create sculptures or large pieces such as gates, railings, stair handrails, as well as small decorative objects or furniture.

The finished piece can be polished, painted, patinated, or left raw.

During this introductory workshop for adults, you will:

Learn how to safely use the various professional tools,
Discover, according to the rules of the craft, the techniques for cutting, drilling, and bending parts,
Learn the basics of electrode arc welding.

Please note that this is an introduction to ironworking; in 4 hours, the workshop is designed to give you a very precise overview of metalworking as a whole.

For a first introduction, the objectives are:

To make you aware of the risks of the trade,
To provide you with a clear and relevant theoretical foundation through exercises (cutting/bending/welding),
To learn the right postures and movements that will allow you to practice the technique on your own in the best possible conditions.

For work more focused on welding, it is recommended to choose the longer 12-hour option, where all stages of the technique can be put into practice by making a steel stool.

The price of the 12-hour introductory workshop includes all three half-days.

The booking allows you to schedule only the date of the first session.

Any following session must be scheduled directly with the artist.

You will leave with a stool cut, bent, and welded by your own hands.

The raw materials and tools are provided.
