MIG ONE, Welding *for noobs- Your first welding class $250

Please read the entire description.

Class is on Saturday, check the ticket for start time.

This is an informative, safe, comfortable way to begin welding. We supply everything needed.

For best results, Take this class, Mig 1 welding for noobs, then take either our Boot Camp (three weeknights) or  Welding 101 ( 4 Sundays)  which is a series of three classes with one built-in make up date.  This class is offered as an intro so you can try welding out, but there is no reason not to take the boot camp or 101 series first, aside from it being a larger commitment.

Welding requires both fine physical coordination and a technical comprehension, practice and repetition are essential. Our class size is small. We will always keep you moving, motivated and challenged.

You can try TIG or stick at any time, but it will be much easier if you take Mig Classes first.

Details are here: welding 101

• MIG 1, welding for Noobs, is a class for TOTAL BEGINNERS, (although it is also an excellent class for novice and intermediate welders).
• We will discuss  safety, which is basically all good news, welding is safer than driving, carpentry, or working in a kitchen.   We identify and assess risks based on physics, and data without invoking fear and nonsense.
• We will identify and discuss different types of equipment and how they are used.
• We will begin welding within about 30 minutes of the start of class and spend the bulk of the class welding 16 guage hot rolled mild steel using gas shielded Mig, also known as GMAW. Thinner material is generally more challenging to weld than thicker materials.
• We have a variety of machines available to try. We will discuss other types of welding like TIG and Stick.
• We will show you how to inspect and test welds for quality visually, and physically.
• By the end of this class, you will understand the process, all the safety concerns, and you will have a basic but useful grasp of MIG welding. You will also have a better understanding of welding safety than many professional welders do.
• We offer private instruction if you wish to bring in your own machine. We provide all the tools and materials required, we ask that you wear shop appropriate shoes and a long sleeved principally cotton garment. Please, no sneakers or shoes with nylon uppers.
• All clients in our classes receive tons of individual attention  to help ensure each client achieves their particular goals.
• Our class size is never more than Ten. Commercial welding classes are often  50 clients per instructor.
• If you want to give this or any class as a gift, we offer gift certificates to all our classes. There is no need to schedule at the time of purchase, just get in touch when you know what date you wish to attend.
• Please use our CONTACT FORM to reserve a place in a scheduled class using a gift certificate. We will always accommodate gift certificate reservations first, but reserve in advance for best results.
