Ironworker enjoys working on glass 'puzzle' By Brad Stanhope, Fairfield Daily Republic, CA
The glass comes in sections and Davidson, other ironworkers and glaziers work together to place them in the correct place. It takes about four hours to install the largest ones, he said.
'The smaller ones are for two to four hours,' he says. 'It's a slow process.'
To the layman, it looks almost impossible. But that's not so.
'It's like a puzzle - it all fits together,' he says.
Davidson grew up in Michigan and moved to Northern California at 18, where he began working in his union.
'I started working rods and rebar,' he says. 'I found a place in the trade. It's a tough trade - but it's easy on the body.'------------------------------------------- posted 6:04 AM :: reference link ::
