    The TIG Welding course provides students with the basics of safety and operation for the TIG (tungsten inert gas) Welder. This class will train students in proper heat settings and techniques that will allow them to weld a wide array of alloys such as stainless steel, aluminum, bronze, and brass. Students will execute hands on operation and trouble shoot common mistakes with the instructor. A small materials fee covers each student’s metal stock and welding rods. 

    *Please wear appropriate shoes as you will operate the machine. Leather shoes preferred NO FLATS, NO OPEN TOE.

    *Please bring safety glasses if possible

    Learn the safe use of an oxy acetylene welding torch.  Major techniques of welding, cutting and brazing will be demonstrated then performed by the students. Students will become proficient in the safe use of the welding apparatus and become knowledgeable of the various techniques available using a welding torch. Methods to be explored will be oxy acetylene welding of mild steel, using the cutting torch to cut shapes from mild steel and brazing mild steel and copper. A materials fee covers each student’s metal stock and welding rods. 

    *Please wear appropriate clothing and shoes. Closed-toe shoes only, NO sandals NO flats

    This course will introduce members to the MIG (metal inert gas) welding equipment as well as teach students safety and basic operation of the machine. Originally developed for welding aluminum and other non-ferrous materials in the 1940s, MIG was soon applied to steels because it provided faster welding time compared to other welding processes. Students will get a chance to operate the welder and trouble shoot common mistakes with the instructor. A small materials fee covers each student’s metal stock and welding rods. 


    *Please wear appropriate shoes as you will operate the machine. Leather shoes preferred NO FLATS, NO OPEN TOE.

    *Please bring a pair of safety glasses if possible
