Welding Training

Welding training/Inductions are conducted by the Metalbashers. These sessions take 1.5 to 2 hours and are limited to 1-2 people at a time. Given the limited amount of time the Metalbashers can devote to training please do not anticipate that you will get training "on demand".

People who come along to the Wednesday Metalbashers and help with the running of the workshop sessions will get priority.

If you are interested, its advisable to contact the mailing list before attending to see if other Metalbashers will be attending on any given Wednesday.

The journey through this equipment will start with MMA or Stick for the basic skills and the move on to MIG and perhaps TIG, based on progress with the easier techniques and completed projects.

If patience is not a virtue, you may also wish to contact this guy who also offers introductory welding sessions, which can be used to help demonstrate welding capability.
