About

Try plasma cutting and welding while making a metal evergreen tree. You’ll cut the shapes out of flat sheet steel and weld them together. You’ll use a hand-held plasma cutter to create parts of the tree in 16-gauge steel (roughly 3/32nds) and then weld the pieces together with Metal Inert Gas (MIG) tack welds.  The tree that you will make will be about 16-18" tall.  

Details

No welding experience required.

Project

A metal tree 16 to 18 inches tall

Materials

A $20 materials fee, included in the cost of the class, covers everything you need, including steel, cutter tip replacements, consumables, and personal protective equipment.
