That could just be the entrance test, but if you can do soda cans you'll be fine. After you were hired you had to qualify on inconel, titanium, stainless, haynes 188, and aluminum in .030 and .080. Then came training on the parts.

This is my best can yet (ironically my first attempt)....one side good the other not so much. The hardest part of this is getting them tacked up without starting holes in the cans and my arc is constantly jumping from can to can. Practice makes perfect though

Your weld is stronger than the base metal.
