GAS WELDING
* Gas welding may be the process that the artistic type
will use exclusively.
* Arc welders will likely want this skill too.
* I'll help you get started.
Gas welding is alive and well!
*Artistic types may choose gas welding only.
* Arc welders may want to, or need to use it at times.
*Practice is critical for running great looking beads!
Eye-hand coordination gets tougher because you're
doing more multitasking.
I'll give you a brief introduction. Then I'll hit some safety tips. Then talk about the equipment. Then a few
tips for the gas welding itself.
* This will be all about oxygen-acetylene welding.
* The torch flame itself will melt the parent material.
* Brazing only melts the filler material, not the parent
materials.
* Safety is paramount! The flame can be as hot as
5000 plus!
* Having a cutting torch can also help you with cutting and forming your work pieces.
I will tell you about tank settings, flame settings,
practice tips, and what you're looking for while gas welding.
GOOD LUCK!
