This event sounds awesome! I would for sure be there if it was closer to home.....like Washington state. I have a ton of questions about welding and want to learn so I can work on my own stuff, I'm sure I'm not alone in my area. It would be cool to see an event like this held around here. I would be willing to cook too!

Sean,
Please add me to the list of attendees. I should be able to bring 1 MIG unit, if you're wired for 220V, I can bring an additional unit. Will we be doing any TIG welding?
Thanks,
Cesar

PCA San Diego hosts our Spring 2012 Performance driving school May 4, 5, 6. as CDI I am responsible for planning and execution so im a little busy until after the school.
...and Instructor training day march 3rd.

Im getting excited about this event. Ive been back at writting the lesson plan. as I type, I can see it coming together. I still think it will take 2 days to be worth a dang. the days are long in the summer . June is still nice weather here in san diego. Perhaps 1st or second week of June...last week of May could work but i will be recovering from the PDS (it's a really big deal to me)

18 have responded
how many of you would come for a 2 day class?
is $250 reasonable for a 2 day class?
Ill feed everyone slow BBQ smokey goodness
include rags, fire suppression, grinding wheels, grinders, clean and rusty metal, chemicals, beer, soda, water.
hire another experienced rusty metal welding guy so we could have better student coverage
limit class size to ? 10-15 max
observers free, pitch in a bit for food and beverage

I'll start with welding basic 101 but focus will be specific to welding rusty 914s and rust abatement

im writing a manual to go with it so you can reference it a week later when you attack your rusty 914 project with your new skills and courage.
we will focus on practice. I'll go light on the chalk talk since you will have the reference manual with the chem treatment procedures and what not, suggested tools and materials.

This would be a great way to spend a few days learning to weld, eating some BBQ and getting some 914 time in. If you have room for one more newbie, please count me in for the sessions.

I am interested. Never welded before so covering the fundamentals will be great. Thank you.

Sean, if you have a single-day fee also - that would enable those who can't make it for two.

I'm coming over from Tucson, AZ area so not sure this far out if two days are possible - but one for sure.

Thanks for all the prep.

2 days, YES
250 for 2days, YES
Food and bev included for price, YES

Do you have a bunch of welding machines avail? As I've read, the key to weld courage is practice. I'd hope to get a lot of seat, uhhh, weld time! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif)

I would like to do 2 guys per machine
we do need volunteers to bring some extra equipment. I like the idea of different welding machines
need extra goggles for observation, gloves, leathers...
...oh and one more grill

one grill for the slo cook. a brisket and a pork shoulder. the other for burgers and dogs
the vegetarians can handle that grass growing between the fences out back
