About this Class
This is an introduction to TIG welding for beginners. TIG stands for Tungsten Inert Gas and uses a handheld electrode to maintain the arc while manually feeding filler metal into the weld. It is best suited for small, precise welds in clean metal and specialty alloys. Applications include bicycle frames, toolmaking, repair, automotive and artistic purposes. Matt will cover the setup process for a new machine, and students will spend a lot of time practicing technique with personal feedback. Students will weld mild steel, stainless steel, and aluminum. Although no prior welding experience is necessary, adequate night vision is important.
