O knihe

This book will give you an understanding of how I create realistic works with barbed wire. I am not explain every detail, as I assume you have a good eye to capture the shape and proportions of what you are creating.

I also assume that you know how to weld with oxygen and acetylene. I will touch briefly on these things, but you will need comprehensive training in these areas if you are a beginner. Be sure to use appropriate safety gear and follow all safety precautions at all times.

I love the barbed wire because of the texture the twisted wire makes. The barbs are really immaterial and often actually get in the way. When this happens I cut or weld them off in that area. When I want it to be smooth, I often use the barbs to weld the wire together, thus getting rid of the actual barb, or melt the barbs into the wire along the way. If it is not in a place that needs to be welded, I will often still weld them down so the finished sculpture is smooth to the touch. Just to preserve the romance of barbed wire, I will leave just a few barbs but keep them in areas that will not be touched.

This is a labor of love. I trust you will enjoy what I am sharing with my art.
