A 3+ hour, fast-paced introduction to gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW), commonly called TIG (tungsten + inert gas). It isn’t as scary as it sounds. If you can solder, you can weld. Plus tons of online resources to continue learning on your own.

In this class you will learn:

Fundamental concepts of welding, cutting, and brazing
Different types of welding processes used in industry
Proper safety attire and safe working practices
Proper equipment set up & maintenance
Arc welding carbon steel using the TIG / GTAW process

Plus FREE ONE-ON-ONE COACHING SESSIONS until you feel totally comfortable using the equipment on your own. By appointment to fit your schedule, this follow-up class provides individual coaching, additional practice, and a setup + safety certification test to use the equipment on your own.

Taught by me, Damon Hamm, an award-winning metal sculptor with decades of experience. See my work and connect at https://bio.site/damonhamm.

General recommended attire for working with hot metal: long pants and clothing made of natural fibers, with boots or closed-toe shoes. A long-sleeved shirts and a cap, bandana, or hair covering is also recommended, but not required. In hot weather, feel free to wear what you want. The first class is mostly demonstration and instruction in proper technique. Near the end, attendees may take turns on the machine to try it out for themselves. FCFL can provide welding jackets, helmets, gloves, and other safety equipment as needed.

I also do one-on-one training courses in advanced materials and techniques. Ramp up faster and weld your project in a single day!

Advanced welding techniques include welding aluminum or bronze, resistance-welding, and other fabrication processes.

Or if you prefer, I can design and build your project for you or alongside you. DM me to discuss.
