Overture:
Telephone call. This is You: You want to decorate you house with our metals. We make an appointment (desirably directly on the place of erection). We meet. You tell us what kind of forged article you would like to have and we are trying to understand you and make the measurements for the project.
Scene first:
We draw and you are capricious (you have the right). We draw again and you are capricious again (where are the pearl buttons?) Then we are capricious all together and we make a new project. Finally, you approve the very first draft (this is exactly what is needed!), we fix the terms, define the details and we sign the Agreement.
We make sketches (drawings in natural size), schemes of difficult centers, schemes of fastening for the forge and assembling.
Scene second:
On the basis of the sketch the smiths make a “conductor” for each detail – a clever device, repeating the plastic of the detail with the help of which the smiths forge, thinking tenderly about the stubborn artists (again forges on kilometers!). As bigger the detail, as it is more difficult to work with it. Would you like to see? – come over here, it is interesting. Head of the production – Sergey Andreevich Makarov and the master – Anatoly Pavlovich Gergin will take you to the workshops and will show you how the metal is being transformed into your article.
Scene third:
Metalworkers-assemblers form the blade of the article from the forged details, thinking tenderly about the stubborn smiths (they couldn’t forge everything simultaneously, no, they give partially!). They assemble the details by electric welding. In the old days they used to do this by forge welding. This way of welding the details is based on the heating them till the definite temperature and assembling under hammer’s smashes.
Welding joints should now be cleaned, the article must be primed, painted and fixed, what we are doing.
Scene forth:
After erection we take the paintbrushes and “make the lyrics” – give the article the desirable by You appearance with the help of different patinas and brass leafs.
Curtain.
Now You will probably call Your friends to celebrate…
And we start from the very beginning:
