Why did you add that line? If you look at the quickstart, you'll see you should have no reason to do so (unless I am grossly misunderstanding what you did). Specifically, look at project/model/__init__.py
You're supposed to import any other SQLAlchemy objects you make into that file, and then everything will work fine. By making your own metadata, and possibly overriding the other metadata object in __init__.py, you've ensured that your app will likely never work. If any of the above is unable to clear up the issues, please post some example code in your next email, and we will try to show you what changes to make. As for how to use SQLAlchemy with your code, have you worked through the tutorials yet? They cover it pretty well.
