On this course, you'll learn new skills across a range of subjects from workshop health and safety through to the basics of welding and fabrication. With a combination of these new and exciting skills, you'll create a piece of metal art to take home with you.
This course will start on Thursday 24th April and will run each Thursday for 6 weeks from 6pm - 8pm.
We will have all the tools, materials and ideas waiting for you but you could even let your creative juices flow and produce your own designs! We'll start small, working to produce name plates in weld and will then move on to pen pots and trialling different methods of fabrication before finally deciding on a final piece (or two!) for you to work on and take home to display.
Come and try your hand at:
- Tool identification
- MIG welding
- Hand forming
- Metal rolling and folding
- Metal cutting
