    My new welding apprentice asked if we could weld a new jack on her horse trailer. I said of course, but she had to do the majority of the work. Well because of the position we had to weld in, she would have to attempt to weld 7018 up hill ! One of the more difficult parts of the welding and fabrication industry. Can she get it down? Watch and see!

    Good going rookie. I know from experience that teaching others how to weld helps you be a better welder too. It's also a great thing for us welders when we pass down our skills to others. Congratulations to your helper on her first steps to being a journeyman welder or fitter one day. Keep burning them rods brother.

    The easiest way to teach lighting torches. Light the acetylene. Turn it up until the back smoke goes away. Then turn on oxygen depending on the type of flame you want

    I remember my first time welding. It was MIG, so much easier to learn on. For a first time welding uphill she did great! Considering the fact that she wasn't just learning how to manage a puddle, but also rod patterns, rod angle, and burn rate - she did really good. Lets not forget the fact that she didn't stick the rod! There are a ton of intricacies that go unnoticed with SMAW. Impressive and she should be happy with her welds on this for the first time.
    Anthony showed great character while teaching also. Exercising patience can be hard to do for skilled craftsmen. For some, they would have just taken the stinger and turned the lesson into a demo of how to do it. In my opinion, letting someone fail and then reeling them back in like he did teaches them much more than a demonstration ever could. Well done man.

When i got hired as a helper i got humbled real quick. know 10 years later im still learning new things. I got to do a career day presentation for a local elementary school. I couldn't believe how many kids found welding so kool. Nice to see someone giving a girl a chance. They are great helpers and will actually listen to what you have to say lol.

    Powerful swing, first try arc strikes, steady hand torch cuts and decent looking beads. Great Job!!! When you see undercut, you are either too hot or not staying there long enough to fill.

    I tried a uphill weld on a outside corner of some square stock for the first time the other day. Ohh lord my welds look like a chihuahua shit on the metal. Way harder then it looks. The inside corner so much easier then the outside points where two 45s meet. Stick welding pretty tough to learn on but i figure if I can learn with this stuff then I’ll be an expert on mig by the time I get this down

    Ladies involved in industrial processes need to be very consciencious about protecting their pretty bits. ( men probably should too)
    Good gloves
    Full face protection always
    Keep that kneck and chest covered, a bib on those face guards is probably a good idea.
    AND figure out what you will do to protect your hair and keep it out of the machines, a hair net, scarf, bandana or some other non-flamable head covering.
    If your hair is very long, wearing it in a pony tail inside your shirt is an option. That's what my brother does.
