Based on several requests, I am going to be offering a 2 day welding & tin knocking class on Friday & Saturday September 29/30 at the shop. The class will be limited to 4-5 participants - $350 per person.
The main focus will be learning to weld in a patch panel, hiding seams and managing the inevitable distortion from welding sheet steel.
We are going to use the MIG welder as well as the oxy-acetylene torch. We may add TIG depending on student skill levels and desires.
We will discuss the proper use of the pneumatic and electric angle grinders and the various media available for this work.
Finally, we are going to manage panel distortion with planning, the torch, the hammer and dolly and the shrinking disc.
Students will need to bring their own PPE (minimum gloves, welding helmet, eyes and hearing protection).
There is local lodging available within 20 minutes of the shop. We will provide lunch.
If you are interested, kindly send me an email to sales@portrayal.com by Wednesday 9/20.
I am opening this up to subscribers first and then will broadcast this more broadly starting Thursday.
Looking forward to seeing some of you!
