Overview

The Salty Sitkan offers visitors Sitka’s most unique fish experience in Alaska. Visit the only metal art workshop along the inside passage open for classes to visitors.

Mike is a 3rd generation high school shop teacher with a decade of experience making students and teachers alike successful in all types of creations.

Mike will start this fast paced class by making the sparks fly on a state of the art CNC Plasma cutter to supply you with a flat metal fish blank in the shape of either a Sockeye, Coho or King Salmon ... or dive deep with a Pacific Halibut.

You will get a unique chance to see inside a working cnc workshop and learn some of the tricks of the trade for turning dull, crusty steel into spectacular one-of-a-kind Alaskan keepsakes.

What To Expect

In this fast-paced 2.5 hour class you will learn how to easily and safely use the 2" die grinder to smooth and texture your creation. You will remember making sparks fly while geared up in all the provided safety equipment.

After grinding and texturing your metal Salmon or Halibut you will use a tear drop mallet to bring your fish to life with 3D shape.

After you complete the shaping we will turn the heat up with a propane torch to apply deep hues of bronze, purple and blue to your fish to create a truly one-of-a-kind Alaskan keepsake. Your piece of metal art will be as breathtaking as the views of Sitka Sound.

Whether the fish are biting, or the seas are raging you will take home an amazing catch you will never forget.
