Training DATE: Sept 17 — 18, 2010 At Coletti Concrete Studio, we specialize in GFRC as our main casting method for large, thin and 3 dimensional pieces. GFRC has become more and more popular as the demand for bigger, lighter and stronger works has grown. In this class you will learn mold making techniques, mixing procedure, casting, de-molding and finishing using Buddy Rhodes’ GFRC products. With Buddy Rhodes’ GFRC products, you can focus on what you’re making without the hassle of sourcing and combining multiple products, saving you time and money. After two days of intensive classes, you will have gained the confidence and know-how to start making high quality GFRC projects right away in your workshop. This is an intensive advanced class. We recommend that you attend the basics class prior to enrolling in this class. Matt Mondini leads the San Francisco classes with Buddy.
