I took a basic welding class last quarter, and took some pictures. I
found it fun, and made some progress, though it wasn't pretty, lol. Following are some pictures of my progress. I enjoyed the class so much I registered for the evening creative welding class for spring quarter 2017.
I learned welding takes patience and a lot of practice to make a pretty, and strong weld, both of which I haven't gotten down yet, but I will.
First night, first time with stick. 6010
A little fun with 6010
A star is born
6010 filling up the star on apposing corners
More passes with 6010. beads getting better and more consistent, but still not pretty. Progress is progress though.
Fresh corner to start some 7018
I like 7018, nicer beads, Only cleaned with wire brush, no grinding or wire wheel use.
