Art Startups

Welding refers to the fabrication process that causes materials such as metals, thermoplastics, and others to coalesce. It is an important process for constructing various objects and structures. Welding is mostly applied in building construction and creation of functional objects, but welding can be used for works of art, such as sculptures. Sculptural welding requires extensive knowledge and skill because it involves welding materials of different shapes and colors.

Matt DeCoursey has a discussion about the art business with guest, Jay Lockett of Stainless Floral and Jay Fabwerks—the CEO, Janitor, Social Media Manager and HR Generalist of his own company. After becoming a skilled welder, Lockett decided he didn’t want to work for anyone, so he started his own business.

He did many of the standard welding jobs but, He also tried his hand at sculptural art when trying to win back the heart of a girl. While he didn't manage to win her back, he did come to realize his proficiency in stainless steel art. This led him to begin another facet of his welding business, creating art with welding. His most prized piece is the Titanium Diamond Eternity Rose that costs $250,000. Intrigued why it costs so much? Tune in to this podcast to find out!
