A blacksmith works by heating pieces of wrought iron or steel until the metal becomes soft enough for shaping with hand tools, such as a hammer, anvil or chisel. David has been able to adapt and develop some creative techniques for replicating his and/or our client’s visions into stunning masterpieces.

From creating aquarium racks and stands to handcrafting metal doors and unique signage, there is no end to his talents. He even experimented with a new technique of “braiding” heated metal for a unique door handle. There is no telling what else he will design and come up with in the future. The possibilities are endless.
