Basic Arc

Arc welding is a versatile process.

It is a bit trickier to get used to than mig welding. However if you are thinking of setting up a welder in your own workspace this is the cheapest and most accessible form of welding. The machines are under £250 new for a good make, you do not need gas and a box of electrodes cost about £20 .

​

Arc welding requires a lot of practice so for this class we concentrate more on sticking metal together rather than making a specific object.

We will only be taking one person at a time for this class, and will be a combination of demonstration and hands on practice. You will have access to your own welder throughout the class.

Please wear sturdy footwear that protects your feet from dropping things on and sparks, all other PPE will be provided.

This is a 1 1/2hour class and the cost is £65 inc materials.
