Centennial Community Education

This class will teach you how to TIG weld as you make an iron fish from a horseshoe. Your iron fish may be used as a trivet, door stop, or wall art. It may be combined with another horseshoe for a cell phone holder/charging station. TIG stands for Tungsten Inert Gas, the gas we use is argon. This type of welding bonds metal to metal without rods, sticks or wire feeds. Local artist, Greg Kraft, will cover safety and introductory concepts of sculpture and design. Participants should wear long sleeved cotton shirts, jeans or heavy-duty work pants, closed toe leather shoes or boots. Bring leather work gloves and creativity. Instructor will provide: TIG welder, horseshoes, welding helmets, gloves (if you don’t have them), safety glasses and power tools.
