About

MIG (Metal Inert Gas) welding is the easiest kind of welding to learn and a technique with broad applications.

At the end of the class, students should be able to lay down a weld bead, identify the characteristics of a good bead, and problem solve for the causes of incorrect beads. Students may progress to simple welded pieces and may compete a simple project like a pair of bookends.

Class size is 3 people facilitating one-on-one learning and direct mentoring from a professional welder. Each participant will have the use of a fully equipped Miller 215 welder. 

There is an $18 materials fee for steel, gas, filler wire, and recycling included in the class tuition fee.

Safety and Personal Protection Equipment will be provided by BARN.
