About

Major tools will be identified, and their use discussed along with their related hazards. You’ll learn the various welding and plasma cutting capabilities the studio has to offer, and the proper use of grinders, cutters, and saws. You’ll also be introduced to the myriad sheet metal working tools available, both hand-held and larger shears, roll, brakes, and spot welder.

This “observe and learn,” no-cost class offers only the basic but required understanding of what’s possible in our Welding & Sheet Metal Studio. Hands-on experience with these tools is gained by taking classes.

This class is free but please register as the class is limited to four people for safety and so the instructor can focus on the presentation and help students.

(Our Welding & Sheet Metal Studio is fondly referred to as the Jack Archer Workshop, or "JAWS," in honor of our beloved BARN instructor, Jack Archer.)
