Hello,

Welding can be a very safe thing to do.  You do however need to know
a few different safety tips before you get started.

Welding Safety General
Welding is a very difficult and dangerous profession so it is
important for each welder to make sure they follow general safety
guidelines. In this way, you can insure not only your safety but
the safety of others around you.

There are a variety of hazards that a welder will face under the
normal performance of their job. Here we list a few of the hazards
you may encounter and what you can do to protect yourself.

Electric Shock
Most welders will have to deal with some form of electric shock
throughout the time that they weld. Although you can take
precautions to keep you as safe as possible, this can happen even
when you are careful.

What to do: Make sure that you weld in an area that is free of wet
areas and outlets that are faulty. Use gloves where practical when
you are using the torch and make sure that you are grounded by
standing on rubber or wearing boots that are shock resistant. Do
not touch electrical parts, including electrodes, with your bare
hands.

Fumes and gases
Most welding by the nature of the way the process works will create
noxious gases and toxic fumes. This is something that is necessary
for the process to do what it is supposed to do.

What to do: Make sure that the area is well ventilated where you
will work and make sure that you weld in an open space. Areas that
are confined make it easier to inhale the fumes and gases, which
can cause the welder to pass out.

Welding Sparks
Welding sparks are a fire hazard but they are a necessary part of
the job because it is the nature of how a welding torch works when
it hits metal.

What to do: make sure that you weld in an area that is free of
debris or materials that can cause a fire. Keep a fire extinguisher
nearby just in case. Wear clothing that is fire retardant, and do
not weld around container that had flammable material in them.

Arc Rays
In arc welding, the arc rays can actually burn the welder’s eyes
and skin if they get near them. It is a good idea to make sure you
wear safety equipment for any of these jobs.

What to do: make sure you have a comfortable filter lens and when
welding, always use a helmet. Make sure the clothes you wear are
fire retardant and that you protect your skin. Also, if you are
working around others, make sure you put up a non-flammable shield
in the area where you are working.

Hazards in general work area
There can be many hazards in your general work area that you may
not be aware of because you may not be conscious of the problem.
Make sure the area is clear of clutter.

What to do: clean up the area; make sure any debris or clutter that
could catch on fire is removed. Make sure any materials or tools
and cables are organized neatly. Make sure your equipment is
grounded or insulated well.

Hello,

Today we go over some tips if you are interested in buying a welder.
What to look for, what to think about, what will matter to you when
you get it home.

What to Look for When Buying a Welder
There are so many welders on the market it can be confusing to the
average person as to which one to buy. For the most part, what you
buy will be determined by the kind of project you will be doing
most of the time.

If you are new to welding your first welder will probably be a
stick or a wire feed welder because they are the easiest to use. A
wire welder sometimes is easier because you will use a continuous
feed into your gun as you continue to weld. In a stick welder,
you’ll need to change the electrode or “stick” periodically as it
runs out. Also, the wire welder will be easier to use, give you
better welds from the beginning and you can learn it relatively
quicker than stick welding.

The next thing you will have to decide is the type of welding you
will do most of the time. Generally there are two types: Either Gas
Metal Arc Welding (MIG) or flux cored wire welding. These two are
very different in their delivery so it is important to know the
difference between the two. When you are going to be doing welding
for small repairs, you probably will want to get an MIG welder
because it is very versatile in the types of materials it can weld.

If you are going to use it in your garage at home or the same
location, the MIG welder will be perfect. It is not very portable
because you have to also use a container of shielding gas with it.
If you are going to do a lot of outside welding, then you will
probably want to use the flux cored wired welding. Since flux is
already in your machine, you won’t need a shielding gas and this
makes it more portable.  The only problem is that with this type of
welder, you can only weld one type of steel.

Another idea is to go online and check out the many welding forums
and ask about the various welders. You can read archives and ask
specific questions about your needs, and receive guidance from
other welders.

If you buy your welder through an industrial products manufacture
you may find a welder that does both.

When you buy your welder it is also important to make sure you
purchase the safety equipment need. For some you will need a full
safety helmet and for others you will need at least safety goggles.
However, you can be exposed to fumes, arcs that go haywire,
electric shock and other hazards so you will want to make sure that
you have what you need.

Other ideas for getting the welder you need include renting or
buying used. In some situations either of these options can be a
good idea. If you are only going to use a welder occasionally, you
might consider renting one. If you are going to purchase a used
one, it is a good idea to go with upper end purchases because they
are made better than the cheaper models.
