Participants will dive into hand-forging, texturing, and tapering the stem, while crafting the petals from 18-gauge sheet metal. Using a welder, they'll attach the textured petals to the stem, and for those interested, create optional thorns. Lastly, we will employ a torch to delicately heat, shape, and refine the petals, breathing life into the handcrafted rose.
Zach Herberholz
Six years ago, I transitioned into the world of blacksmithing full-time, embarking on a journey that liberated me from a series of unfulfilling jobs. Embracing self-employment, I wholeheartedly welcomed the daily challenges of creativity, problem-solving, and discipline. My relentless pursuit of skill enhancement leads me to actively engage in specialized workshops and educational courses, as well as immersing myself in the wealth of forgotten and lesser known forging manuscripts, all in a quest to broaden my knowledge.
