Hello Everybody, So like the headliner says I'm thinking of becoming a welding instructor, however I have no idea how to even get started. I am currently welding now and have had some school but I'm not sure what steps I should be taking to further my education in this area. Any advice would be grea...

cj737, Most of the time I stick to my own work but on occasion I get an opportunity to go back and talk with them. Try to actually teach them something about welding, but seeing as I'm still learning it's more like the blind leading the blind. They just told me they were having this problem and was ...

Oscar, Thanks for the advice, I'm still new to trying to explain problems without inundating everyone with details. I can not speak about there torch angle because I really have no idea. The guys doing most of the welding aren't actually welders and I've tried when permitting to teach some of them I...

I would get something with more power but i'm in a rural apartment so i can weld but don't have access to anything more than a 120 outlet. I'm trying to keep in practice for stick welding weld...

I might have miss identified the gas being used because it's a argon/co2 regulator, not a straight argon one.

This question might have already been asked but I'll ask it again anyway. I'm welding production on aluminum boats, 5356, and they are using a 75/25 argon/co2 mix. My question is why would they use this instead of straight argon. Also, I'm using a miller XR-alumafeed powered by the miller alumapower...

Hello everyone, As you can guess i'm new to the forum, been listenjng to the podcast for a few months, watching the vidoes a few month before that and i started welding a few months before that. Still kind of new at welding, but right now i weld aluminum with wire feed and tig. I have welded stainle...
