The Wolf is made of stainless steel, represents 300 hours of work and once finished, “it will be shiny like a mirror” promises Maxime.
Maxime Pawelec, 24 years old, is passionate about the boilermaking profession.
The young man from Novalaise in Savoie completed a professional baccalaureate at the Lycée Monge in Chambéry, then a BTS and finally a work-study license at Meunier Frères, a boilermaker specializing in stainless steel in Abrets-en-Dauphiné in Isère.
Today, still at Meunier Frères, he continues his training in the workshop to master as many techniques as possible.
Working with stainless steel
He has been working with stainless steel for more than 6 years now, and in order to show a know-how transmitted with passion by his elders, "too often hidden because of industrial secrecy, he wanted, through this wolf, to be able to expose a piece in order to promote this profession of boilermaker” assures Francis Pawelec, a father, not a little proud of his son.
300 hours of work
The Wolf is made of stainless steel, represents 300 hours of work and once finished, “it will be shiny like a mirror” promises Maxime.
It measures 2 meters by 2 meters.
Maxime promises, his wolf should be finished by October 20.
