Trey gave a welding demo to Sculpture I as to prepare them for their first project. He stuck to simple metal that was easy to work in a variety of ways. He emphasized the safety equipment to wear, no synthetic fibers, closed toe’d shoes, jeans or a thick material like so, and welding gear (mask, gloves, jacket). He also emphasized and harped on knowing how to use the equipment. “Even if I just told you how to do it and you immediately forgot or were unsure. Just ask me or Austin again. We’re here to help and would rather you be unsure. If you’re unsure just stop and come get one of us” A quote Trey said. He wants a strong grasp on how to use the tools for safety reasons and best execution of tools, and in the long run a better piece for the student.
