This Advent season each person, family or household has chosen a day to do a simple but "Christmasy" activity or craft with the village. Yesterday was our day and Art decided to have people draw a ornament design on a square of stainless steel. Art then would cut the design out and and give each person an ornament to take home. Below is Rachel Lulay's design.
During coffee break, a daily tradition where everyone stops and socializes, Art helped some of the elementary school kids create their design on the metal.
At 2pm Art and a few others took the designed metal squares up to the shop, where Art taught people how to use the plasma arc to cut the design out and buff off the rough spots to finish the ornaments. This was a fun project for all but especially for Art because he introduced a new craft to many.
