Would anyone be interested in a welding thread? - Hot metal and sparks, oh my!

[WelperHelper99]

I'm a welder and I explain this shit a lot. Anyone interested in how shit gets put together and how Miller vs Lincoln Electric is a marketing ploy?

Stick welding is a respectable thing to know, can be used in all positions and on quite dirty, un grinded metal (though you really should to get rid of paint and millscale). Ive done all processes, but im best at mig and fluxcore, and decent at stick. Hopefully with this we can bring you and others interested up to speed with our collective knowledge.

We have a land plot with a rural house about 70km from our family apartments. It's a common thing here.
So it comes natural that you learn things to keep it from falling apart.

It's very common in rural areas, met many a welder from that background, especially farming. Shit always needs fixing. We do have a general thread now if you're interested

Slightly off topic, but if you like welding, odds are you'll like this thread. Lolcow boomer makes a terrible boat
Lots of shitty welds, poor safety, and general lack of regard for hundreds (thousands?) of years of maritime knowledge

Is a part time welding job a thing, like 20hrs or less a week

 

[WelperHelper99]

You're doing your own thing at that point, think odd jobs. It won't be a set schedule but you'll make some cash if someone's fence breaks in the middle of nowhere and they see you on a Facebook ad.

Can you explain how you’ve posted almost a thousand times in just over a month?
Do you actually work or do you like, weld dragon dicks in your dads garage?
