When
I'm creating there are usually three major things that take
place; cutting, forming and welding.
A
cutting wheel most commonly does the cutting of the steel but
depending on the job it might require a saw or even a laser.
The machinery needed to form depends on the thickness of steel
or the type of steel. At times you can form material physically,
with other times needing large scale powered machinery to form
the steel. Last there is the welding that takes place which
could be tig welding, spot welding or silver soldering.
There
are many machines and tools used through these procedures to
get my sculptures where I need them to be. The combination
of machinery and my imagination make my sculpting capabilities
endless.
