admin

So it's one class per semester.....So far.... INTRO to Stick..... then ..... INTRO to TIG........ now.... INTRO to MIG......I would like to take classes faster..... but with a full time professional gig..... it is what it is.....MIG..... even though it is THE machine that got me addicted to this welding thing...... it is THE one process I'm the least comfortable with........Any monkey can pull the trigger and "weld"...... I'm looking forward to at least getting better at it......I'll post pics throughout the semester with progress......Precision TIG 185 and MP 210Bobcat 225NTCutmaster 42O/A tanks.... 2 Argon tanks...... 2 C25 TanksFacebook......

Reply:If I never touch a mig gun again in my life I wouldn't be sad. Nothin' to it but to do it, brother. Enjoy it. Just remember, tig and stick is the way to go.
Reply:Actually, you can't teach a monkee to weld, monkee will quit after the first time they get burned .....not sure what that says about the rest of us....

Reply:Oh, I've been mentally collecting them for 50 years, learning from people who are more learned than I can ever hope to be, and doing my best to pass them on. Life's challenges have all been met before and being the lazy lot I am, I figure why reinvent the wheel!
Reply:Have at it! Clean the base metal good, like normal. Fit up as exact as you can, like normal. Block ALL the wind if you can. And weld like ZTFab.  EZ.City of L.A.
