I must admit after reading Deb Jemmott’s description of her rolling mill class at Metals Week in Idyllwild, I was really intrigued. Here is what she says about it: In addition to imprinting metal with designs using paper, found objects, and metal (including pierced and etched metal patterns), students will learn to produce the “married [...]
