This two-day workshop explores the art of welding with metal found objects. Starting with a visit to a local scrap yard, you will learn how to identify weldable metals for your project. Next, use a MIG welder with other related hand tools to create your own found object sculpture.
Note: Be prepared to walk in an industrial setting; gloves and boots/work shoes are highly advised.
