Ask Me Anything. AMA *stump the Rusty.

We have had a lot of requests to simply see the studio,  and get a feel for how we approach our clients and the material. This is our attempt to provide that for our clients. 

This is  highly informal class, Think of this as hanging out at your buddies' 3000k sq ft shop. 

You can reasonably expect to get a feel for how we do things, what kind of equipment we use, debate us on the merits of Harbor freight equipment, and determine for yourself whether you might like to try our classes.

This is not hands on, clients will not be welding. 

We are happy to discuss all welding related questions and demonstrate solutions in this class. The focus, if any,  will be on the differances between different types of machines and processes, and machine adjustment and troubleshooting, but we will answer any questions you may have, including, what machines to buy, whether brand X machines are any good, what this button does,  what that knob does, are birds real, myths and legends of ground clamps and so on. 

We do no reschedule.
