At Arc-Zone.com we get some interesting customers, and Chris Santistevan is no exception. He not only a trapeze artist he is a welder too!<\/p>\n

At night he dazzles visitors at the Las Vegas Ultimate Variety Show<\/a> (see video below<\/em>).<\/p>\n

By day, however, he can be seen fabricating stainless steel\u00a0above-ground pools for high rise hotels in the city.<\/p>\n

Chris called us up looking for a good tungsten grinding solution<\/a>—\u00a0Arc-Zone.com offers the industry’s most comprehensive line up of tungsten sharpeners<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"APTGKDX\"He was concerned that his newer employees were wasting a lot of time dressing tungsten on side grinders, and they were getting inconsistent welds. \u00a0We got him hooked up with a Sharpie DX-K pro-kit<\/a>, and he told us a little bit about his work.<\/p>\n

Chris fabricates stainless steel custom pool liners as well as \u00a0supply pipes, flanges, and tubes. \u00a0I didn’t know this, but evidently it’s a requirement that hotels with pools above the twelfth floor have the pool made\u00a0entirely\u00a0from TIG welded stainless steel!<\/p>\n

Once completed, the pool is then sprayed with gunite to look like \u00a0a traditional pool. \u00a0 As Chris points out, no one ever actually gets to see his work, but it is critical to the safety of the hotel nonetheless!<\/p>\n
