This course will cover the basics of welding metals with various techniques: oxyacetylene torches, stick welding (SMAW), MIG (GMAW) and TIG (GTAW) will be explored. The first four instructional sessions will review the procedures and techniques, safety concerns and equipment, and capabilities of each welding method. Students can then use the final session as time to practice welding or to weld a small project under the supervision of the instructor.
