Fundamentals of Welding

A rewarding hobby – and a valuable skill on the farm.

This is an introductory course in gas (oxyacetylene), SMAW (stick welding) and GMAW (mig welding).

In this course you will learn safety procedures, become familiar with equipment, and practise basic welding techniques. You will cover vertical, overhead, flat, and horizontal welds with different types of electrodes and welding wire.
