The paper is devoted to making art products from low-carbon steel. Due to the peculiarities of the design of such products, configuration
and relative position of permanent joints and their elements, application of electric arc welding technologies turns out to
be limited. The advantages of electric arc braze-welding for making such structures are considered. A detailed description of the
implementation of technological tasks, arising in manufacture of real sculptures made of steel, is given, namely joining continuous
profiles, joining wire parts to a tube, joining a bundle of thin wires to a semisphere and joining wires of different diameters at sharp
angles. A photo and characteristics of the sculptures made with application of TIG braze-welding are given. 7 Ref., 1 Tabl., 8 Fig.
