Hi, I’m John. The first time I walked into a welding shop for a job I was kinda intimidated, I had only had a couple of years experience welding outside of school and it was intimidating to be around guys who had forty plus years of welding.
The thing that really got me though was it was a smaller shop where everyone had to know how to operate the same things, welders, forklifts, press, saws, plasmas, paint, shipping etc etc.
Like I said I had two years of welding and that was on old lawn mowers and projects with friends making money here and there. Thankfully I got the job anyway! I was taken under there wing and did everything under the sun there. Learned from a lot of really good guys and eventually took over the welding department. After 10 years of welding and eventually giving weld tests to many, many new hires.
I noticed that a lot of people that came in either COULDN’T weld, read a tape or diagnose issues with their machines or showed up to weld in Crocs! Yea that really happened… Anyway, a lot of those guys were fresh out of school and had certs! That blew me away.
I wasn’t mad at them but definitely disappointed in their so called teachers they “Learned” from, since they payed to learn to weld and get Certified. They weren’t! A lot of them were cocky and couldn’t weld while some guys came in humble and worked out great.
I eventually started two of my own businesses on the side while still welding and had an idea, what if I make a website for anyone who wants to learn to MiG Weld. So thats what I did. Easy MiG Welding was made to teach anyone who wants to learn to MiG Weld to weld completely free and from not just me John but other guys that have many years of experience. So if you’ve never welded and want to, this site is for you. If you’re in school, looking for a new hobby, or just need help, this sites for you.
