Navigate the cutting-edge world of plasma arc welding technology that reaches 30,000°F, revolutionizing aerospace manufacturing with unprecedented precision—discover its game-changing capabilities.
Plasma cutters revolutionize metal fabrication with precision slicing technology, but choosing the right one requires understanding their capabilities.
Welding safely and comfortably matters more than ever when temperatures drop and projects move into cramped garages or cold shops. I put together this list so we — whether hobbyists or pros — can find helmets that protect our eyes,…
In this guide I lay out 12 practical, easy-to-follow welding tips for beginners that I teach in my video “12 Welding Tips for Beginners | Basic Welding Guide | Arc Welding Tips and Tricks.” Whether you are just starting with…
Getting the right stick welding amperage for metal thickness can be tricky — run too cold, and your rod sticks or the weld just sits on top; go too hot, and you’ll blow through the metal or lose control of…
Welding cast iron with flux core can be a real challenge, even for experienced welders. Cast iron doesn’t behave like mild steel — it’s brittle, loaded with carbon, and cracks easily if you don’t treat it right. Many welders crank…
Hearing about underwater welding for the first time can make it sound like something straight out of an action movie — welding torches blazing underwater while divers fix ships, oil rigs, or pipelines deep below the surface. But in reality,…
Welding on galvanized steel without removing the zinc coating is a mistake most of us only make once. The fumes are harsh, the puddle goes crazy, and the weld ends up full of porosity. That’s why learning how to remove…
When I was welding pipe and pressure vessels, I used to wonder what it really took to become a nuclear welder. I’d hear stories about guys working on reactor components and turbine housings, using perfect TIG welds on stainless steel…
First time I tried to fix a cracked steel bracket with JB Weld instead of firing up the welder. I wasn’t sure how strong that stuff really was — could it actually hold weight like a real weld? That’s a…
