While investigating the 112 year old building that is the Reid Boiler Works, I was invited by Jennifer Barker to fill in as a subcontractor/ welder, and help complete some of the many Retorts under construction. During the first few months I became certified with welding procedures 4, 6 and 9 which are variations of: stick welding with 6010 & 7018, dual-sheild MIG welding, and Submerged arc welding. Over the last 2 years a partnership has been developed that has benefited the two companies with powerfully metal forming techniques for my artist adventures and modernized tooling and retrofitting for the boiler works.
