Olá, sou o Silas Morgan!
A Man Maid Portugal é uma empresa familiar fundada em Londres pelo meu pai Mungo Morgan com quem trabalhei ao longo dos anos, adquirindo muita experiência no ramo da construção. Sempre gostei de trabalhar com madeira e de ser responsável pela construção e reparação de estruturas de madeira, pelo que a minha principal área de especialização é a carpintaria. Temos tido muito sucesso e decidimos expandir para Portugal a partir do Reino Unido. O meu nome é Silas Morgan, vivo no coração da Ericeira com a minha mulher e dois filhos. Falo fluentemente inglês, espanhol e português e estou ansioso para ajudar a comunidade local usando minhas ferramentas e experiência para realizar uma ampla variedade de reparos e reformas.
FAQ's
No previous experience is necessary. This workshop is suitable for beginners, and experienced instructors will guide you through the process, from selecting the timber to finishing your chopping board.
The workshop costs €300 in total for a group of 1 to 4 participants. This is a fixed group price, not a per-person price. Please enquire with your preferred date to discuss availability before booking.
You'll learn how to prepare rough-sawn timber, use biscuit joinery for glue-ups, sand wood to achieve a smooth surface, and apply finishing techniques to protect and enhance the material. You'll also gain practical experience with professional woodworking tools and machines under expert guidance.
Please bring your own lunch for the one-hour break, or visit a nearby café. Coffee is provided during breaks. For safety, long hair must be tied back and loose or baggy clothing should be avoided. Wear practical clothing suitable for a hands-on woodworking environment.
You'll leave with your own handmade chopping board crafted from high-quality exotic timber, practical woodworking skills and a better understanding of joinery, sanding and finishing techniques. Your finished piece will make a useful addition to your kitchen or a thoughtful handmade gift.
