The Daily Grind

























And we're not talking about 10 hours at the office or a cup of coffee. Fortunately it's not REALLY a daily occurrence. One secret they don't let you in on when you decide to work in steel as an artistic expression is the amount of grinding involved. If you're doing fabrication or 3D volumes, it goes up even more.

Having just finished a new sign for BD this weekend that took about 100 sanding discs and 15 hours of grinding (more on this project soon!), I thought this photo summed up the past few weekends AND steelwork in general. The photo is by my good buddy Gary who was visiting in 2012.
