Woman And Machine is holding an ‘Intro to MIG Welding' welding class on Wednesday night, June 23, 2021 from 6 p.m - 10 p.m. at Karen Sullivan’s home shop in Plympton.
To give our participants the most amount of ‘rod time’, we can accept a maximum of 6 students. This is a Co-Ed Class so both ladies and gentlemen are welcome to attend!
There will be a wait-list so if the event is sold out and you are still interested in possibly attending, please sign up for the waitlist and we will notify those on the wait-list if an opening becomes available.

We will cover various aspects of MIG welding over the course of the evening with about 1 hour dedicated to classroom time to review how the machine works, set-up, basics of welding, etc. Come ready to learn and 'get sparky'!
What You Will Learn:

Basics of the weld machine and various components of the welder
How to properly set-up a welder
Welding steel in the Flat, Horizontal
Proper techniques for welding "tee", "lap", "corner", and "butt" joints
Welding defects; causes and cures
Important:
Please arrive at least 15 minutes early so we can start promptly at the designated time.
We will provide safety gear but if you have your own gear feel free to bring it to the class! Due to COVID, if you do have gear I am requesting that you bring it and use it for your time in the class.
*Please bring a mask to wear when we can not social distance in the garage.
Wear work boots, a pair of jeans that you do not mind getting dirty, and a 100% cotton shirt (this is all for your safety and protection, if you are not dressed appropriately you will not be able to participate in the class)
If you have medium to long hair, bring a hair tie to pull your hair back or already have your hair tied back.

**Due to changes in steel pricing, I am now offering this class at the original Intro to MIG Welding price and my normal 8 hour Intro to Welding Class will be at a higher rate. The 8 hour class will review more items and also allow you to make a project at the end - this class is an intro class so you can see how welding works and start some basic practice and a few types of joint.
