A very late area manager introduction. Who wants to learn some welding basics?

Hi all, I’m Adam the Welding Area Manager. I realized I haven’t introduced myself in the year or so that I’ve been here. I went to LCC for structural welding and I’m planning to take their creative welding class in January.

As a secondary bit of housekeeping I’ve been making a table that can be used for oxyacetylene cutting, and have reached the point where I need to weld around the frame to make it a bit stronger. I’m planning to use it as a way to teach folks some basic welding. No prior knowledge is required and I can run the weld checkouts for anyone that’d like one. Let me know if any of y’all are interested. I’m currently planning to start working on this in mid October, I’ll make another post about it in about 2 weeks. Here’s the frame so far.

If I’m available when you want to do it, I would like a reintro to welding. I have been interested in the creative welding class for some time, but the schedule has never fit well for me.

I’m interested! When?

Would love to learn some!

Alright looks like we’ve got a good amount of folks to start, I think I’ll start with October 10th(Friday 4pm-6pm) and October 11th-12th(Saturday and Sunday 5pm-8pm). Do these dates work for y’all? If not let me know and I can work with you to schedule different times.

I’ll ping the folks that have expressed interest

I am teachig a wine rack class saturday oct 11 from 9 until 4 or 5 or so. But i could drop in after. And maybe we will be done early.

Also, sunday oct 12 is the LMN cookout. I don’t know the times, tho.

I’m out of town this weekend- obviously…its going to be hard to schedule for everyone- so I’m ok if I miss it…
