the 4th and 25th of April or those weekends work for me. I will bring my Lincoln 100HD MIG setup if needed. I'd think learning with my welder would be better coming away knowing what I can and cant do with it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif)
I cant wait!! |

bring your welder but I will make you switch welders so you learn to adapt and read welding conditions not limited to your welder's habits. the trick to welding versatility is learning to read conditions as they change. You will learn more on teh Lincon. a Millermatic is what I call a cheater welder. they have circuitry that masks improper technique

work, life, OP drama infestation into my world.
...right about the time I was writing the lesson plan, a storm was brewing on my EX landlords desk. my old shop location was condemned by the city of San Diego for ongoing code violations. there were 7 shops in the complex and we all got asked/told/evicted to move. apparently the owner of the place ignored the city inspector's requests to correct for the entire 2 years I was there. she never told any of us about the code issues. Wed, 3 days before the "re-inspection" she sent us a notice of the violations, citing that I would be accountable for any fines for violations not corrected by Monday.. the city inspector is cousin of a racing buddy so when I called her, I got the history of non-compliance from her. unfortunately you cant un-ring a bell so one day I came to work and a contractor was ripping the electricity feeds to my shop out of the ground. I was closed for 3 months, it took 100+hours, 3 brokers and it cost me well over $15k to move. I am eternally grateful to my friends and many 914 world member who stepped up with time, trucks and trailers to help me move I am grateful that this event showed me how awesome this community can be when one of us is in need. I am grateful because my new shop is 10 times better in 20 different ways |

I would absolutely LOVE to have a class like this in the Southeast. I want to take a MIG class; however, all the tech schools around me that I could get to at a reasonable time are geared towards welding certificates. I just want to learn the normal basics and then really learn details of MIG panel welding.

I'd be interested as well, I just got my first mig for Xmas and I have a 914 already stripped that needs a little help if we need a demonstration car.

I really think it would take at least 2 days min to be usefull/good. I'll publish the lesson plan early so when the students arrive, you will have a head start. |

Either April or May works for me. I'd be glad to bring my portable (110v) wire-core welder for others to use.
