Grin and Grill It: What's Hot in the Welding Studio Right Now

Art happens everywhere at the MAC- surprises await behind each studio door. Today we ventured to the welding studio, where we found Jim Elling with his latest creation. It’s not just an interesting piece of art, but it is also a functional grill!

From the toothy grin to the tail pipe that spews smoke, we were taken with the whimsy and detail of his creation. He completed it in the last class session and it took him around 8 weeks to finish. We were amazed when we learned that he did this in the Introduction to Welding class!

Here’s Jim with his work and a closer shot of just the grill. 


We also caught M. J. Barret working on her latest piece.












Fall classes are starting soon. Your chance to work with a blowtorch (or paintbrush) is just around the corner! To get more information on classes and class registration, click here: http://bit.ly/1ceWjtp.
