Candleholder Project in Welding
by Drue M. from Earlville
In order to make the candleholder pictured, I used 1" flat stock
and made eight scrolls. The circles were made out of 1/4" metal
circles and the edges were made from 1/2" strips and rolling them
into circles. It was welded all together. I made the candleholder
because it looked like a challenging project, but it was also
fun.
I am taking the Welding class because I work on demolition derby
cars and there is a lot of welding that needs to be done on the
cars. I have learned how to weld MIG, TIG, stick, and oxy fuel. I
can weld vertical, horizontal and flat. I have worked on many
projects -- anything from shovels to trailers to barbecue cookers.
It is a fun class to be in!
