Metal Sculpture

Come practice your mad welding skills ( or if it’s been a while and you're a little rusty. no problem!) make some awesome metal yard art or rustic home decor with Dustin Swiers!

Here's the game plan:

 Safety comes first so wear your Welders Best which is: closed toe shoes, work clothes that can get dirty or singed preferably jeans and a long sleeve 100% cotton shirt (synthetic fabrics can be flammable) and your hair up.  

- When you get here, choose one of our pre-cut metal projects or discuss ideas of  free-style sculptural project with Dustin

-quick over view of safety and welding technique 

-  learn how to deburr and prep steal

- make your sign or project functional by welding on a post, stand or hangers ( couple ideas for displaying your sign- garden post, mailbox hanging sign, wall mounted sign )

Want to take a Metal/Welding class but the dates/times do mesh with your schedule? Or you need advice and a little help with a personal project.
