The story+
This welder ornament is for the person who lays beads of steel for a living and explains the job at every party the same way: I basically hot glue metal. A welder in a blue work jacket and a dropped orange hood kneels over an I-beam joint with sparks flying, a tiny glue gun hanging on his toolbox. Hang it on the Christmas tree, tie it to a gift or tuck it into a stocking.
Welders will recognize the shortcut answer, and everyone else laughs because it is almost true. It is a small, easy gift for a dad, a husband, a brother or a coworker who comes home smelling of flux and tells you the day was good.
The print shows the welder in navy, rust and orange on a warm cream disc, with I BASICALLY in tall navy capitals above and HOT GLUE METAL. in orange below. It matches our I Basically Hot Glue Metal tee, so the joke can be worn and hung.
