The Fabrication Series I was recently hired as a welder. Uncertified. However. I took a 3g horizontal and vertical hard wire test I still need to take the Tig test. It’s AWS. I was using 98/2 gas. Now how can I get the cert to follow me? Meaning if I leave this place? The test took me awhile. I had to weld both sides then cut out 1.5 inch coupons. After the visual part passed. Grind my welds flush. Then they went thru a bend test and passed.
@@stcfabworx1687 Just get the WPQR and take it with you. As long as you show you used the process at lease every 6 months then you keep it for life. Then next shop you go to can simply file the WPQR and they will save themselves some money. I print a WPQR for every welder I qualify and keep a copy in the office.
Even if your next shop works to a different code they will usually accept the AWS qualification. All the code books have a secton allowing qualification acceptance of another code
Are you still doing this?
Im a retired welder of thirty five years I built ski lifts for 22 years and bank vaults and red iron for the remaining years There's a lot of welding opportunities out there now and a big shortage of Certified welders Now is the time to get out there learn the trade get Certified, You can definitely make a good living lots of overtime you just have to get out there and get some helmet time in and the rest will fall in place
There are thousands of certifications. I love the fabrication series. This is a kick ass channel and for those folks who get these certifications, I pray to God that it helps them get their foot in the door with these certifications matter. Also, it does matter to get the certifications, even if they're not flying out to Las Vegas meeting with those guys will say a lot to a potential employer that you are willing to go do what it takes It means you are a person of action.
Excellent you go out of your way to help others realize their goals. Hats off to you.
You're 100% correct. I didn't finish welding school. Even though I have basic welding experience it doesn't matter. My area has more welders than welding jobs. It is what it is.
I had my AWS D1.1 4g certification, and yet I didn't even get a single call back because I didn't already have years of experience. Eventually gave up on welding as a career and now it's just a hobby.
Are you still try to look for jobs ?
Why do people think this is a scam?
I live in aussie land, i went to a place and got certified for aluminium tig and mig. I had to weld a 3f fillet that was later tested at and independent place and i passed.
Easy done.
I've been watching TFS for a while now, I like your teaching style. I've been hobby mig welding for years and just got into basic tig with a MP machine, stepped up my game a bit. I'm a tree climbing arborist by day but my passion is fab. I'd like to build specialized equipment for my industry BUT, I'm not a "welder" or "certified" so I'm limited to building/prototyping for myself. This video may have been the nudge that pushes me to get certified for backyardigan engineering. Kick ass man👍👍
That piece of paper is worth so much. It's like a key that opens the lock to the vault of gold.
I think what the nay-sayers are missing is that the welds, two of them, have to pass destructive testing! THE BEND TEST. Yes, the test is easy - meaning it is not difficult to take, assuming you've ever done overhead. Passing, on the other hand may not be so easy. So if you take the test and the coupons bend before the weld fails, that says something about your weld. So you achieved acceptable penetration. THAT takes some practice. Also note, this test doesn't qualify you to do nuclear or construction or oil pipe in the Yukon (or downtown East Jock-strap Missouri, for that matter) on anything equal to or larger than 1/4". The test is roughly somewhat less than 16 guage to slightly less than 1/4". So you won't be mig welding any I beams on the latest 100 story building....I agree, some certifications are useless - even if there is a certifying body....I know this because I've interviewed "certified" individuals who didn't know "s--t." But that certification did get them the interview didn't it?......just sayin'....
I hope to get mine by the end of next month, I already passed my stick class, next is mig.
Dang, LV! That’s a few hours from me! Great to know! See you when I get a bit more experience and thank you for the information.
What up just finished watching this video. I need more info to get some certs . Let me know ..
If I lived in the states I would be booking my slot, but I'm Canadian and our cert is different, good on you for making it so easy for people to get certified
lol this intro is hilarious, cuz now they'll hire literally any welder that walks through the door
Really wish I would've seen this sooner.. Subscribed to not miss another opportunity!!
what you are doing is fantastic id love to go there but im skint and live in the uk i am a welderbut my welding is mma and mig i have a ticket for tig but not done much of that im out of work at the moment as there are no welding jobs around me and my wife had to go nearly four yrs without so i could pay to get my tickets. please dont stop what you are doing its fantastic
Another reason companies like "certification" it covers their asses.
Back in the day there was an expression "No-one ever got fired for buying IBM", now companies like Micro$oft, CISCO, etc, certification and the same principle applies in the welding field.
I am a j-man carpenter...
I have been working as a welder/fabricator at a brewery equipment manufacturer for 5 years now... ;)
I don't have any "real" training, but I have been a hobby welder for a few years, and can make strong joints that dont fail. Is this something I can do and get a job welding? Or do i need a bunch of college type classes?
You should ask some companies for their wps so you can test to that, because once they get hired (if it's a high paying job) they will have to retest again.
Not really. A welder only qualifies on joint type, position and process. Find out what they do and you can get certification to suit. The procedures the shop has will cover specific joints, materials and process used. If you got all position FCAW on groove welds for example you would cover a ton of shops.
That is awesome! Good on you!
The problem with welding certifications is that there's a different one for every different weld with every different process on every different kind of metal in every different thickness, they expire constantly, there's no such thing as an official certifying body, and unless you're a pipeliner no employer even cares if you are certified or what in. I can write you a certification that'll do you as much good as anyone else's.
Did you not read the range on this one? It covers a lot.
That's simply not true. You can qualify on a 1" steel horizontal groove and you have unlimited thickness qualification fror 1G, 2G,1F, 2F on any steel in that process. You could have a test like that done in a couple hours.
ya, they always test you when applying for a welding spot even if you have your certification. 👍
I wish I new about this 😩
I'm in New Mexico Estancia where would I go to get certified
Are you still doing this?
Are you guys not offering this anymore i just called and was told you arent offering the certs
Thank you
Dudes this is awsome. I'm in!!!
I wish you could do this in the UK.
Is this updated?
what does it take to become aerospace certified and to land contracts with aerospace,I am certified mig 1/8 to 3/4
Are you guys doing this again anytime soon?
These guys are the ones that usually last 2-3 weeks when they realize working in a fast paced shop is a hell of a lot harder than this “easy” certification test!
Keep giving these guys fuel needed to take your job.
Hey I want to get certified for my father in law iron work company he focuses on fencing, stairs, handrails, etc. I would like advice on what to go get certified for I’m 1 year in the welding industry and I want to make the business official but it’s hard getting info out of people. If u can get back to me that would be cool
I am certified in stick but I want to be certified in tig too I have tried the overhead and I think I can pass it is ur class still Available?
I am actually going to be at SEMA this year and am interested in getting my MIG and TIG certs. When I look for the d 1.3 certification on AWS's website I'm not seeing anything. Just wondering what I'm missing and does the certification require any renewals and what do those fees look like?
I get the “I’m a certified welder” from lots of people. My first question for them is certified in what? Second when was the last time you were tested? You’d be surprised by the amount of people that believe that they are somehow qualified for life after passing a plate or pipe test whether it was last week or years ago. Most companies in my industry test welders on their first day and every six months thereafter. And almost every company has their own wps.
It's still up to the person to keep up with their skills at the end of the day, but it's also good to have as many as you can get. If the company is willing to give out another that you dont have - take it and add it to your list of quals. It's a win/win.
Can't wait for a titanium certs.
too expensive, itll be pricey if he'd offer it because material is very pricey.
@@Ryan_1997 but that would make the class more expensive so you're going to pay for it one way or another.
That's what's up
Aw that's cool as hell boss! Really got me thinking... What about structural stick though, any chance you could include that?
I dont think I can squeeze that so soon. This took a lot of time to organize. Maybe next time.
@@TheFabricatorSeries roger that. This is still really intriguing cuz I just established a business, so it would be a write-off. A company trip to Vegas 😎 plus certification! I don't think you'd be surprised how many homeowners ask if you're certified to do handrailing.....
It's definitely a business expense if you need it to move forward with your business. You'll have all the records to show for it too. Lots of people want to see certs and the ones who have them get the jobs.
I am looking to weld on air planes. Chrome Molly and aluminum what is the best way to learn how to do that?
Starts with learning to spell chromoly right.
Start with some training. We offer classes that will get you very familiar with both. There are also tech schools dedicated to those fields as well.
You will want to got to a reputable school to get a jump start to a welding career. Definitely a lot to learn.
take weldin, if your local college or tech schools offer it. and apply as an apprentice to get your feet wet in the door. know your math too, learn as much as you can about aviation, read and read. im going into that when im done with my welding and aviation mech. classes👍
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
HAha
Good
Do you have just a day class for mig? I will be in town the Sunday and Monday after Thanksgiving. What kind of cost to teach basic skills in mig?
The MIG class curriculum was just approved and it will be up on the website very soon. If you email me before hand I can get you set up and booked.
How long does this cert remain valid if you don't land a job right away? And how often does it need to be renewed?
Its yours for ever.
As long as the Certified Welder submits the Certificate Maintenance Form signed by the employer stating that said welder is still doing the job that was tested for and submit $25 with the form every 6 months? That forever? Or is this a one time thing just pay once and no forms to fill and no fees to pay?
So i noticed on your site, in addition to the 3 available dates in Nov, there are also dates listed in Dec and Jan. Is that accurate or just a website error?
It's a calendar error I cant fix. Some kind of messed up bug in the code that requires me to immediately reverse charges and send a very long explanation email. I spent days trying to chase out the code before I gave up haha.
Gooooood to know.
Yea computers can be a pain. Thanks man.
Not being funny, but if the test is THAT easy to pass, the certificate isn't worth the paper it's printed on!
Nonsense.
Its not designed to make you fail. Its designed to show you can make a sound weld. The specific procedure you follow when making a weld will ensure you make a successful weld with different variables.
What’s this a scam or what
No. It's an event where people show up and get certified to weld.
No thanks. Semi driver heating or electrician is way better.
"Better" is a point of view based on aspiration. Never tell someone they dont want to do is "better"
@ dominick253 , No welder ever had a cop stop them in the middle of a work day to check their paperwork, check their equipment and make sure you took a nap for a certain amount of time before you went back to work. If you did all of those things correctly & the cop was an asshole he could just make something up and still ruin your day and potentially take away your job. Still want to drive a truck?
dominick253 yep. I drive trucks myself. No boss breathing down your neck and decent money.
Wrong. No one trade is better than another. Most others could not be without welding, and welding needs a few of the others. I can pull wires, butcher wood and back a trailer in. I just happen to prefer to weld. Sexiest job in the world. We all talk shit about the other guys, but at the end of the day, we're all needed to get it done.
I am a cdl holder myself. But I find welding a bit therapeutic.
