My friend Chevy is an artist who works mostly with metal and resin. He makes sculpture, lights and occasionally does large projects like gates and balustrading. He employs a few people to help him manufacture some of his pieces, which frees him up to create new things, so the staff keep the workshop relatively clean although his workspace is an artwork in itself. I took some pictures while I was there and I will attempt to declutter the experience by posting a few at a time. Today, I will show parts of the workshop.
Firstly, the man himself, who wasn't into posing, so here he is beating something on a mandrel with a 4# hammer
A welding table. If you're wondering what the little mounds are, they are created by striking the welding rod before commencing welding. This ensures a clean weld from the start by ensuring that the flux is the correct length. Well used tables!

A half-finished project that ended up stuck to the wall near the toilets
Tomorrow, we will delve deeper into the clutter
