Forgot to give the props, this technique is associated with a lady named Elizabeth Brimm. You can get a sweet video of one of her demo's through UMBA (upper midwest blacksmiters..).., she's the real deal.

ironwolf - if you type in elizabeth brim, with one m you ll find something - nuge thats so cool, is it just expanding air in a sealed shape? presumabley there is a limit to the puffing up and then the weld splits or the thinnest part splits? i saw a few images of elizabeths work, theyre good , and funny, like loads of bags and shoes and stuff, really liked a dress i saw ike a ballet dancers dress - that was very interesting :) thanks for that!!

Her Mommy told her it's not lady like being a blacksmith, especially for a Southern belle. So she wears pearls when she hammers.

Her story!

Beth - Yeah you just get a good weld on two matching sheets. Tig is fast and its actually really easy to gas weld these, and you get some practice. Square shapes work better than round, hence the pillows in Mrs. Brimm's work. Leave a little spot to weld a pipe in there.
