In a world that offers far too few opportunities to be creative, I offer classes in blacksmithing, bladesmithing, welded sculpture and welded fabrication.
I teach men and women in a friendly atmosphre that emphasizes building lasting skills.
Many of my students have had NO prior experience with metal work.
Join me for some superheated fun!
