Description:
Beginner level
Make a sculpture for your home or garden while learning to TIG weld safely and with confidence.
You will cut, bend and shape steel straps around a stone. Weld the steel to encase the stone and mount it on a steel rod with more welding. TIG stands for Tungsten Inert Gas.
This type of welding bonds metal to metal without the use of rods, sticks or wire feeds.Local artist Greg Kraft covers welding safety and introduces concepts of sculptural design.
Students should wear long sleeved cotton shirts, jeans or heavy-duty work pants, closed toe leather shoes or boots. Bring leather work gloves and a stone about the size of your fist.
