Jeff. LBCC offers welding on Saturdays in the morning. I've never been to any other training except a gas welding class at night way back in the 70's. The cost is next to nothing to the point that people are coming into the class from all over. Non LB residents pay maybe double, so that's a 100 bucks for a semester. And they give you all the supplies!!

On another note, when I did Beau's G 50 conversion, I left my MIG at his house over night and told him, "Fire it up if you want to. You've seen all the procedures." He never did.

I love the sound of sizzling bacon in the morning.

(Don't get any ideas about me going into the welding trade. It's hard and heavy work, for the most part. Young strapping types and some older grizzlies can do it, but it's a lot like a framing carpenter. You don't see too many 40 YO NFL players and you don't see too many 40 YO framers.)
