Working with metal and castings i loved this video. Makes me think and wonder how the first metal workers were truly artists and instills a pride in craftsmanship into this type of art. Thank you for this.

Everything about …
Everything about this three-part video was excellence, personified. The setting was beautifully established, the theme reverently given, the plan was offered with well-thought-out insight, and the work performed represented obviously a labor of love from the heart and soul of both Alan and Katherine. Having worked with metals myself, although certainly limited in the artistic sense, I am convinced I could duplicate everything that was shown/taught/prescribed/honored/demonstrated in this work.

As a retired tool …
As a retired tool and die maker who performed all of my machining and hand finishing, I think that I can appreciate the skill and hard work shown here more than the casual viewer.
It was obvious from the start that I was looking at the very practiced hands and body movement of a true artisan.

Right gloves for the right job. Grinders you use tighter fitting gloves. When using a drill press then of course no gloves are allowed. Welding uses heavy duty heat resistant gloves.

one must be careful with some tools the gloves can get caught and compromise dexterity- one has to know what is wisest for each tool

Very interesting way of presenting this method as an art. I knew it was used for bronze sculptures -I’ve seen many videos, but the overal details in this video make it, truly, worth watching.
