@modestmoose83 Haha, you got a point. I’ll sometimes tack my welds with out gloves when I’m working with low amperage settings but safety is always needed. I’d like to see him tack that with no gloves on at 250 amps

idahowheelers:

nice to know, use lowest voltage u can so you dont burn though. HAHA just sell the welder buddy or just dont weld anything structural!! PLEASE

fuckyoda:

i just got a 220 mig and i hooked it to the 220 in the kitchen where the stove is. do u think thats enough power coming from that 220 to power the welder cause i plug mine in and i turn it on and all i get is a light that says the welders on. no noise and nothing works and its brand new never used so i dont know wdf is going on

genraly speaking put the earth clamp closest to the thing your welding and try to make sure its clamped onto a patch of bare steel

Fighting to keep shops open–YES.
I had to persuade numerous powers that be, that trades and applied skills has a big future. In past decades numerous schools in the united states and Canada have had their shops dismantled. For various reasons, usually school board accounting practices, they are always looking to reduce costs. The new machines in my shop were the first ones in over 20 years. With our economy in such perile, the need for skilled labor will never be so necessary.
