I guess this is where I start. If not, let me know.
Anyways, I am welding instructor at the local community college. I originally got into welding because I enjoy doing art and would like to do more metal art. I have not gotten any further into art and welding than I did 10 years ago. Anyways I was hoping someone could let me know what types of materials you are using and how you are putting them together, for instance maybe you are using gas welding or brazing to make copper roses. I find it fun and would like to bring a class to our school once I get a good understanding and reference of how metal and art can be applied and talk my dean into it. I am also interested in taking some classes, I am in the Southern California area if anyone knows of any good sessions going on.
