No welding experience required! WOTT’s Introduction to Welding short course will get you started with the easiest and most accessible welding process: MIG welding. In this course, you will be introduced to:
· Home workshop layout, tools and equipment
· Welding safety
· Planning a job and getting materials
· Cutting, bending and preparing mild steel for a project
· MIG welding techniques, including tacking a piece together and running a weld bead
· Steel clean up and finishing
Some familiarity with tools and workshops/sheds is useful, but not essential.
This course is about applied learning: by the end of the course, you will have made a small fire pit/pot plant holder to take home!
What you bring: Yourself.
All tools, materials and PPE (safety equipment) are included in the registration
What to wear: long pants, a long sleeved shirt (no synthetic materials, please!) and sturdy closed boots or shoes.
