Staci Martinez joins The Fabricator Podcast to talk about starting her own small business in Sioux Falls, S.D. called 605 Shield Maiden, which focuses on creating metal art sculptures, fabricating handrails, and combing wood and metal to make furniture.
She discusses how working briefly as a production welder and seeing all the potential in the scrap metal bin inspired her to pursue metal art. Staci eventually created her first sculpture, a gnome, and was chosen to have it on display at SculptureWalk, an exhibit of outdoor sculptures displayed year-round in downtown Sioux Falls.
She also talks about her involvement with The Hooded Heroes Foundation, which serves to help provide welding equipment and PPE to those who can't afford.
At the top, hosts Dan Davis and Josh Welton talk about unfortunate metal sculptures, including the infamous Cristiano Ronaldo bust at an airport in Portugal.
