Introduction to Welding

This is an introduction to welding targeted at people with no prior experience with welding or metalworking.  We'll talk about general safety, preparing parts for welding, and using one of Xerocraft's MIG welders.  

The primary goal is for students to leave with a basic familiarity with the process- in particular, how to recognize a less-than-ideal weld and what they should do differently to make the next one better.

All welding-specific safety equipment will be provided.  Long pants, long sleeves, and closed toed shoes are strongly recommended.
