Aspiring Metalsmiths Team Blog Topic – November

This months Topic – Show us your Studio:


Each month a group of metalsmiths choose a topic and you can check out each artists response on their blogs in the list below.

It has been a while since I have posted any pictures of my metalsmithing “bench”. Really calling it that is a bit over glorifying the whole thing. Most of my work is done at an Ikea drawing table that I have since dubbed my “bench”.  

 

I hate to admit that most of the time it is not this organized. I cleaned her up a bit just for this photo shoot. Usually my most used tools are spread across the table and even on the floor for easier access. Also, please excuse the several burn holes in the table top … I learned the hard way that molten metal likes to slide off my soldering block and on to the nearest flammable surface the hard way.

I am constantly looking for ways to better organize this little corner of my bedroom so that explains all the drawers and boxes nearby.

Someday I hope to move all this downstairs into my very own studio, but for now it is my favorite space in the house. I can turn up my music and just play.

 (Sorry for the poor photographs but I had to take these with my phone camera :/  )
