Introduction to Welding Studio Power Tools

The Fabrication and Project Classes and Assisted Studios are based on students' ability to safely and comfortably use hand and stationary power tools available in the welding studio for cutting, grinding, and preparing materials.

This class or prior shop experience is a prerequisite for Fabrication and Project classes.  Contact the Studio Lead if you have questions.

Students who are not familiar with the use of power tools in the Welding Studio (chop saw, horizontal and vertical band saws, drill press, hand and stationary grinders and/or "porta-band") should participate in the free Welding: Introduction to Power Tools before participating in the Fabrication Class.  The class -- Welding: Introduction to Power Tools is free but requires registration.
