Weldors in Northern Virginia, make a few bucks for some starter lessons

admin

Due to me living out a little ways and no classes for adult ed being close by, I'm looking for a tutor to learn some welding basics.  Picked up a Lincoln 135, looking to do auto related stuff for now.  Maybe graduate into fabbing for my Jeeps eventually.Anyhow, live in Culpeper, Virginia, about a hour S/SW of DC.Thanks,Blair

Reply:I live in Montpelier,hanover county.Just bought a new place ,but give me a while to get things set up and  i will be glad to help you out.I dont claim to be the best welder in the world ,but I dont do to bad.I have a Miller trailblazer and a lincoln mig welder.I have an uncle in Remington ,not far from you,but he cant weld a lick .I do most of his welding.
Reply:THe next time i head up to my Uncles i will post on here ,and maybe we can get togather for a little while.It doesnt take long to pick up mig welding,id start off with fluxcore wire as you waste a lot of gas learning.get some 1/8 flat bar ,make several tee joints and start burning away.
