Bamboo handrail

                       Hand forged metal bamboo handrail at The Assistance League of Long Beach

Industrial coasters/table leg mounts

These started as custom mounts for table legs



                                                           Now we use them as coasters

Rodin's handrail revisited

Client was happy with the first round of rebar handrails, so we were commissioned to do a second round.

Bronze finger

Our welder taught bronze casting at Otis,


                              this bronze fingertip was the product of a demo in mold-making.

Speed bag

Our friend Big Drew started north America's first Chessboxing league. Yes you read correctly.
Chessboxing is a sport, originating in Berlin, that blends the refined game of chess with the athleticism of boxing. 3 minutes of chess, followed by a round of boxing, until KO or checkmate. Our resident welder participated in an exhibition match in Venice last year. He lost in his third round of chess.



Big drew is 6'10", and trains with normal size boxers, so we built him an adjustable speed bag mount.
