Show Topic: Talking Metal Fabrication with Special Guest Kevin Caron

 

What is your background, how did you get started in metalwork?

What would you recommend people getting started welding start with?

Kevin, looking at your website I see the Red Moon Slice end table. How big is your 3d printer to be able to print it.

Brice McPherson - Kevin, i'd like to know your thought process on your site-specific sculptures. Do you go in with a plan or let the context speak to you? What initial steps do you take in your design process?

Chris Gallegos - Hey guys! Question for Kevin-How often do "mistakes" or unintentional things become a part of the art sculptures or change the design? Or is it always to plan?

Joke of the week

Bob had a lot of work ahead of him so decided to hire a part time helper.

" Your first job will be to sweep up the sawdust." he said handing him a broom.

" Look I'm PRACTICALLY a university graduate," the young man protested.

" Oh, I understand..." Bob replied "Here, I'll show you how." xD
