About

Class canceled due to no enrollment. 6/14/22 SK

This class has a prerequisite. Please see below. 

This class is the next step after MIG #1 (an intro to Metal Inert Gas welding). MIG #1 or equivalent skill is required to attend this class. The goal is to advance your MIG skills to the next level with butt, lap, “T”, corner, and edge with similar or different thicknesses of material, and enhance your Miller 215 welder know-how.

There will be approximately 2-1/2 hours of hands-on practice and guidance on technique (within the three-hour class). If you want to use your own small project as your working subject, you must contact the instructor in advance and discuss the details.

Details:

  • Prerequisite: Completion of MIG #1 or equivalent experience. 
  • This welding class is limited to 4 participants.  
  • The class will have a safety briefing review.
  • Safety and Personal Protection Equipment (PPE) will be provided by BARN.
