The Art of Metal

By
While welding metal is most popular for fabrication, it's so much more than that - it is an art. Welding metal takes skill, precision, patience, and creativity. In many cases, welding takes nothing but sheets of metal and turns it into something beautiful and strong! Even more importantly, while welding is beneficial for its strength, it's also highly admired for its beauty. If you didn't realize this, we want to show you all of the reasons welding & metal can be considered beautiful.

Images On Steel

This is one of our newest endeavors! We etch images into the steel, and we can do just about anything. There are many fun ways you can use this skill to create art and beauty in your home. Whether you choose an image from a special time like your wedding or choose to have an image that represents something you love, like a great view or a pet - we can help. This is only one way that metal can be turned into art. We don't use welds to create this art, we actually carve the image into the metal - but it is a way to use metal in your home for artistic purposes.


Custom Fabrication

Custom fabrication can be used for practical items like targets, equipment, and more - but it can also be used to create beauty! At Augello's Welding, we can use a combination of drafting and creativity to help you invent something beautiful and unique. Do you need to create a custom sign at the Lake of the Ozarks? We can help you create the design and then custom fabricate something exactly the way you nee it. Stair railings are another popular way to use a combination of metal works and welding to create something beautiful. The metal can then be powder coated to give it a great finish.

Indoor Art

Did you know that welded metal can be used as decor indoors? It may not be the first thing that comes to mind, but metal can match so many different styles. It's modern, rustic, and industrial, but it can also be classy, luxurious, and contemporary. One of the biggest ways we see people use metal indoors is through stair railing at the Lake of the Ozarks. The advantage to metal railings is that they are both strong and beautiful. Plus, the sky is the limit when it comes to metal railings. You can have many different designs worked into the piece, from twisted metal to scrolls and other shapes. Railings are one of the more popular ways to use metal indoors, but of course, there are others. There are the images on steel that we mentioned above, along with other created fabrications. You could incorporate metal designs into custom cabinets and shelves, or even have a custom piece created to decorate your walls. The possibilities are endless.


Outdoor Art

The same way that metal can be used indoors, it can be used out as well. Many choose to use outdoor metal art for stair railings on their balconies, pool fencing and more. Just remember that if you'll be using it outside, you'll want to choose the color carefully. Dark colors can become incredibly hot to the touch. Another popular and beautiful way to use metal outdoors is for custom created metal signs and statue pieces. You could use a could also use a combination of welding and images on steel to create a memorial for someone that you loved.

Have you ever wondered how many different types of welds there are? What makes them unique, what skills and tools are required to make them? Whether you're a budding welder or just a really curious person, here are some fun things to know about different weld types and what they are used on. Ark Weld This type of weld uses an electric arc between and electrode and the base material to melt the metals at the welding point. Either a direct or alternating current can be used, as well as a consumable or non-consumable electrode. Heliark Weld this process uses a tungsten electrode arc and helium as a shielding gas. It is more often referred to as tungsten inert gas welding (TIG). The American Welding Society’s official term is gas tungsten art welding (GTAW). Submerged Ark Weld This type of weld is also known as SAW. It involves the formation of an arc between a continuously fed wire and the workpiece. A shielding gas in not required because a blanket of powdered flux crea...

Welding is powerful. With some metal, creativity, and a lot of heat you can build just about anything. While this is just the very broad overview of what welding is, we wanted to take a bit of time to really delve into welding, the different types, and what makes them different. Augello’s Welding at the Lake of the Ozarks uses welding to complete all sorts of amazing projects, like boat stairs, railings, custom fabrication projects, and more. Here are a few things you may never have known about metal to get your gears going. MIG Welding, AKA: GMAW And, no, that does not stand for “Grandma” although grandma’s who weld are pretty amazing! GMAW stands for Gas Metal Arc Welding, and MIG stands for Metal Inert Gas. The idea of combining two pieces of metal together with a wire that is connected to an electrode current is called MIG welding. When performing this type of welding, a shielded gas is used along the wire electrode, which heats up the two metals to be joined. This consta...

Have you ever caught a glimpse of metal handrails? They are unique, creative, subtle, or even magnificent. There are no limits when it comes to the creativity that can be incorporated into a metal staircase, whether that’s the railing or the entire structure. Here are a few things that your local Lake of the Ozarks welder wants you to know about metal staircases, and how I can help! They Are Sturdy When you are thinking about the railings for your stairs, whether in your home or in a commercial setting - there is one key component, durability. You want to choose a material that is strong and will ensure the safety of those using it. Stainless steel is definitely one of the most durable materials and a very popular choice for railings. Stainless steel provides strength, and can even be a stronger choice than wood. Another advantage is that they are rustproof (especially when you powder coat them), with can make them ideal for outdoor railings. They Are Easy to Maintain When ...
