The Eco-Tables class- where the students create the tables using recycled materials (both reclaimed steel & glass) just completed - here are some photos from the class!
The class first creating the table-tops, working with salvaged and recycled float glass.
After fusing the recycled glass, the tops were coldworked and made smooth.
Erwin Timmers - DC's leading "Green-artist" outlines what is required to make the metal work support. Some students are overwhelmed.
Erwin outlines step-by-step the procedures to cut, weld and grind smooth the steelwork.
Some of the students were stylin' in the welding helmets and green welding jackets.
Soon, tables are marching out from the coldshop.
The students - some who have never cut glass or welded before - are amazed at their artwork and celebrate their progress. "What's next?" is on each student's mind.
The new class schedule is due out soon - Keep posted for the listing!
