*
The most successful students are those who have fabricated metal before. No knowledge will be
assumed. Are you a beginner who is good with your hands and a fast
learner? Give me a call and we'll talk about whether this class is
for you. A certain amount of hand-strength is required in any metal
fabricating you do .
-
Completely unique and unavailable anywhere but at the
Volcano Arts Studio.
What to Bring
(optional):
-
Journal or pad for
notes
-
Magnification (I
have a few OptiVisors to loan out and we also sell them)
-
If you have
a respirator mask bring it
along (like painters use, available at hardware stores - filters
should be for aerosol particulates). Although a respirator mask
is highly recommended, don't feel that you need to buy one just for this class.
I have lots of paper masks that you can use for the week.
-
I have plenty of
medium and large latex gloves. If you are allergic to latex or
have extra large or extra small hands, please bring several
pairs to use during the week.
