Have you ever welded before?

Quite a bit.

Process engineer for Tig welding titanium medical products for five years. Wire feed welding for making my bbq. Would have preferred mig. Not a fan of stick welding but I've done it before. Too dirty.

@BluntSm0ker there are a lot of good videos on it online. Get some chunks of metal and start practicing. Have to wear a face mask as well as eye and skin protection. What kind of welding?

Certified welder. I’ve burned a rod or two, and myself on occasion.

@BluntSm0ker Don’t become a welder. Lol
Some community colleges have a welding program, then there are welding schools as well. Some jobs have apprenticeship training. Nothing beats practice though.

@BluntSm0ker Hey if you’re into it go for it! I just know a lot of guys who have worked the road and pipelines and it’s a tough life, especially if you have a family.
Knew one guy who had been divorced 13 times, and the only thing he had to his name was his welding truck. He wasn’t the brightest though lol

@BluntSm0ker It wasn't technically Welding but I was brazing the liquid lines from the coil to the AC and I let the tip of the rod touch my nose after I brazed in the line. I was lying flat down on an awkward angle it was a bullshit situation and I was working with my brother no wonder why he decided I should blaze in the lines.
