There's no age limit to woodworking! In the four corners of France, passionate professionals offer handcrafted workshops to create unique objects!
Woodworking and cabinetmaking involve a variety of creative processes!
To design everyday objects (table legs, wind instruments, bowls, vases, etc.). Apprentice tinkerers handle a wood lathe, a carving knife, a gouge (for profiling, hollowing or coarsening), a hollowing ring, a chisel or a cutter.
You'll learn how to cut and drill wood, using a perforator or drill press fitted with a bit, drill bit or hole saw.
These operations complete the manufacture of an object, perfecting it with a chisel, rasp, file, plane or abrasive.
To assemble the different parts of a piece of furniture or a wooden object (flat, angled, T-shaped, slatted, etc.), you'll need to mark out, saw, notch, fit and clamp.
Depending on your needs, you'll use saws, a router, a laminator, dowels, a rasp, a mallet, chisels or a chisel.
A wide variety of woods can be used in a woodworking workshop. Fir, spruce and larch are softwoods that are easier to work with than others. Sturdy woods such as oak, ash and acacia are preferred for furniture and impact-resistant objects.
The latter is appreciated for its durability and water resistance, as is teak. You'll also find precious woods like ebony or Central American mahogany (with its attractive red hue).
A professional carpenter will teach you how to safely use a jigsaw, circular saw and radial saw.
Alongside him, you'll learn all about the main joinery techniques. Wood carving will hold no secrets for you!
This fun and friendly event will give you the opportunity to benefit from expert advice, while putting your creativity to the fore!
You'll be able to make a variety of objects for the home: lamps, shelves, chairs, storage units, toys, or decorative objects for living areas.
During the day, you'll familiarize yourself with the basic tools. Next, you'll take part in inter-point turning, air turning, sharpening and hollowing exercises to make wooden objects (bowls, bowls, tops, etc.).
