22 years old and a 4th year millwright going for my Journeyman. Never saw myself taking this route but I absolutely do not regret giving it a shot. I love it.
To everyone wishing to become a millwright, learn how to cuss and don’t be scared of getting your hands bloody. Be able to eat your lunch with hydraulic fluid covered hands. Love the burning sensation of overhead welding. Crawl in tight spaces that are often soaked with water or some other type of fluid. Work so much overtime you don’t remember the last time you saw the “free world”. Oh, and don’t forget to get up on a lift ten stories high while signaling a crane operator in the pouring rain/snow. Now for the important shit. All the people asking about math, yes it is very important in the industry. You need to be able to read drawings, evaluate angles and fabricate parts. If you weren’t good at math in the past, quit smoking weed, hunker down and learn that shit. Trig, geometry, even some calc wouldn’t hurt. Oh, and know how to read a tape measure, calipers, dial indicators which goes back to angles. But yes it’s a rewarding career who’s in?
My great uncles were millwrights. They even built their own car and the only thing they couldn't make themselves was the spark plugs. Thinking of taking up whats in the blood. Cheers
My older brother and cousin are both Millwrights, graduated from the apprenticeship program just last weekend and just this passed week I passed my tests for entry into the Millwrights apprenticeship!!!!! Did u know, that once your 10 yrs is up in the millwrights (sometimes before) you can start another trade (like, ironworkers or electrical) and retire with 2 or more pensions!?!? Let's do it bro!!!! Lol good luck!!!
i was actually looking at a forklift operator position and saw the millwright apprenticeship for finch paper in glens falls might get my foot in the door relearn math because i wasnt the best at it and try the apprenticeship
I am a machinist by trade & a millwright by choice in the Old & gas industry, Both upstream & down stream in the last 30 years. Can't think of any other job that suits me. On my off-days I do carpentry as a hobby a handyman in the home.
CNC guy, ACAD, welding and i do some industrial furniture design on the side. I just practically stumbled into this industry. I'm about to dive in. It seems to fit a lot of my cross training already. I do everything from blackmithing my own tools, to making my own mini-refinery, to drawing a book of prints for a machine shop to be lazed. I've worked with stick welding and made parts for the F-22 raptor but couldn't talk about it for four years. I don't know why but i think millwright would be best for me at this stage. I do like travel also.
Just finished my apprenticeship. Going on 5 years now. I’m in house at a engine plant atm. Love my job. Not much work to do at an engine play compared to an assembly plant
My grandfather was a millwright his entire life. He retired from Great Northern paper mill in East Millinocket, Maine. I was curious as to what he did so I ended up here.
Me too. My father was one for decades at Inland Steel Corporation at East Gary, Indiana and I wondered what he did. He continued his education and became a General Mgr. of a 44" steel strip mill.
There is a lot to learn but once you do each thing a few times itll catch on, dont half ass your ppe and dont be afraid to deny unsafe work even if its frowned upon, or youll end up like me with a 20 stitch scar across your face with a crooked nose
Obviously, the guy that's narrating this isn't a millwright. Any m/w that's been working on paper machines for any more than a day or two would never say "rollers" when referring to the ROLLS in a paper machine. That is how us paper machine m/w's tell if someone has actually worked on one before. If your working with someone and they use the term rollers, it's a pretty safe bet that they have never seen a paper machine before then. Most of the time we call them by their actual name, like felt roll, suction roll, press roll, dryer can, etc.
I work at a petrochemical plant and these welders are highly trained in what they do. Must be a Texas thing lol. But I know there's always a few bad apples.
No ! If you have enough education go into Electrical and Instrumentation. There is demand for E/I hands everywhere you look. And you won't work half as hard, and you'll go home a hell of a lot cleaner most days.
I've been trying to get in, my buddy has 20 experience. He can't get me in, they only are excepting military which I think is great but how do I get in. I'm in California.
So how do you guys like it being a millwright? based off of this video it seems like you need to know a lot of stuff and have different tasks throughout the day.
Got into pre apprenticeship bout a month ago and I'm learning stuff that the journeyman (4+ years of experience in the union) are also just learning, from here in illinois most of the guys I work with have worked from Kentucky to New York, the pre apprenticeship isnt bad money but jumps about 5 dollars or so once I get into the apprenticeship program and after four years I'll be make double or a little over that
"And the ability to work with all levels of management....." HAHAHAHAHAHA! My best teacher said it best "you fuck off.... (points to manager), you fuck off.... (points to charge hand), and you fuck off! (points to production supervisor)
formulas , basic math, but still need to know for instance, figuring out a vertical angular offset on a MTBM and the STAT, and how to correct the problem efficiently, then again youre probably a pipe fitter, your ass can wait....well be back when its time to test pipe stress
Cam Mundy Hahahaha no buddy, you need to know a little more then that. By that I mean “basics” but they don’t use useless shit like precal. I’m talking about decimals and high precision
There are in-house millwright/maintenance jobs. Alot of the paper mills in my area have a full time maintenance staff with a few guys that work off shift and weekends and they're called Millwrights. The difference between being a contractor and in-house is the level of experience. Contractors do everything and anything, from the huge jobs to little stuff. In-house Millwrights tend to only do smaller jobs just to keep the mill running. This is coming from someone was non-union In-house maintenance to working now as a union millwright.
millwright isn't what it used to be.... unions are pretty weak these days and wages are a lot lower than boilermakers or pipe-fitters in most areas. This coming from a 3rd generation Millwright.
So how do you guys like it being a millwright? based off of this video it seems like you need to know a lot of stuff and have different tasks throughout the day.
To be a Millwright you have to have a brain that works first of all if you know you're not the sharpest tool in the shed you'll never make it as a Millwright
Rogelio, I’m with Ed on this one. You need to know how to troubleshoot on the fly, or align a 6 ton turbine within thousandths of an inch. You don’t know what in the fuck your talking about. Sorry you didn’t pass pre-apprenticeship testing bud
I'm a machinist/millwright. In Canada, they're really pushing women in trades. I got a young daughter right now, when she's older, I'm going to have her as my apprentice for either machinist, millwright or electrician. There's no wage gap in Canada at least for trades, any company that does have a wage gap between gender of equal qualifications.
depends, i travel alot so if you're into that its a good deal plus the pays great. long hours are very common. 12hrs days usually but just last night we did an 18hr day because a chain broke in a main drag
Hey man, i've been doing millwright work for the last year or so and i haven't used much math at all, not saying it isn't needed but the craft seems to be going more electronic. It's always good to know the math though
Depends how far you want to advance in the trade. Basic measuring tape reading and a little trigonometry will serve you fine. Honestly I've worked with an unsettling amount of millwrights with 20+ years experience who have trouble counting to 10.
+turdsandwicher basic math and geometry. Math comes in when you Precision Measurment and Alinment. Sometimes calculating load when rigging something that weighs 45 tons.
Ironworkers are a completely different trade. They're in construction and not industrial. Millwrights are purely industrial. We don't steal work either. You'll very seldom see Millwrights working on pipes, electrical, or welding and building pressure vessels.
This is not at all representative of what most millwrights do lol these are the easy jobs....the soft jobs.....try working in a woodmill where the millwright name actually comes from XD
The origin of the name millwright is kind of disputed but it's perfectly applicable to steel millwrights, paper millwrights, power generation millwrights, and any other industry.
Or you can become a master millwright. A journeyman electrician is not even a master of being an electrician yet. Better to not make stupid remarks like that lol.
