Discover handcrafted carpentry and the use of traditional hand tools

Interested in discovering traditional woodworking techniques and crafting your own stool? Join a 5-day workshop at La Croisée Découverte! Located in Reillon, near Lunéville, in Meurthe-et-Moselle, this workshop invites you to learn the fundamentals of manual woodworking. With a maximum of 6 participants per session, this intimate workshop allows you to benefit from personalized guidance to learn at your own pace and develop your skills.

By the end of this training, you will have the satisfaction of being able to sit on your stool and also know how to work with wood using hand tools on solid and sound principles! You will be able to independently establish the reference face and edge of your pieces, dimension the necessary cuts for your future projects, and create solid and adjusted conical mortise-and-tenon joints. Each step helps you understand the principles of carpentry and gradually acquire the right techniques to work with wood methodically and precisely.
