Welding:
Welding describes a process of fusing two metal pieces together. The process
involves both art and technology and requires dexterity, timing and understanding
gained from experience.
I liken it to playing a piano ---- left hand keeping the tempo, right
hand playing melody and foot controlling the intensity of the music.
I take pride in my ability as a welder. This skill becomes a tool in creating
metal art and I offer it as a service to those who demand a quality product.
Turnaround time is usually short and no job is too small. Personal attention
is guaranteed.
Industrial Fabrication:
I can produce a wide range of unique products, especially odd-shaped items
because I have mastered a broad array of metal working techniques. My
shop is fully equipped with precision tools and machinery. Many are hand
crafted to my own specifications and my own hands produced many. With
this unique array of specialized tools I can offer distinctive constructions
including: small parts and weldments, prototype elements, artistic models,
display pieces, and reproductions.
I tailor my fabrication work to meet the particular demands of the job.
I will work-up one piece or produce 500 pieces. Turn around times are
usually short and I do my own work so quality is assured.
I take pride in my work and want you to be satisfied with the items you
order
Blacksmithing:
I love blacksmithing. Simply put, it is the forging or hammering of metal.
After heating a piece of steel to bright red in a forge the smith reforms
the shape of the piece by hammering, bending, twisting, slitting and/or
punching to obtain the desired result for a project. These pieces are
then joined together by various means (such as: welding, riveting or collaring)
to form any of a variety of items. These items include: gates, railings,
candleholders (freestanding, wall mount and hanging), wine racks, wall
art and a myriad of other sculptural pieces.
As an age old art form, blacksmithing is relatively low tech.
After thousands of years, it remains the most basic way to change the
shape of a piece of metal. The hammered texture imparted into the finished
piece is an integral aspect of the piece. It is not added onto the surface
like an accessory just to make the piece appear real. Forging imparts
the object with its own character. It is hand wrought - it is real!
By incorporating blacksmithing techniques into my work I am able to create
work that extends outside the limitations of what is available commercially.
Look at the pictures. Use your imagination. Let me create something special
just for you.
