Chicagoland Welding Lessons

admin

Are there any instructors here in the Chicago area, preferably the NW suburbs? I'm looking to get some MIG lessons, I'm finding that I desperately need some training to get started on the right foot  I really don't have time for formal classes, graduate school eats up too much of my schedule.Last edited by kestrel452; 02-05-2014 at 03:17 PM.

Reply:There are some good welding videos on youtube. Weldingtipsandtricks and ChuckE2009 could help you figure things out. Seems most of the informational videos are tig/stick so you may have to search through them a bit to find mig videos.Here's a really good video I found a while ago.Airco Ac/Dc 300 HeliwelderMillerMatic 200 (stolen)Miller Maxstar 150STLMiller AEAD200LE (welding and generating power) Hobart MIG
