I was doing a welding course over the last seven weeks at Wetherill Park Tafe. This was just an introduction course so that I could find out more about welding. The course covered Oxy, Stick and Mig. The first day was just on safety and general walk around for the equipment.
Now that I have completed the course I understand what is involved with welding. I loved the Mig part of the course as I found that so much more easier and it was much faster to weld then Oxy or Stick. But then again if you have a need to do a short run of a weld, might be quicker to just use the stick.
We were using mild steel for the material that we were welding.
I am eager to see if there is going to be a next course using Tig or even to try aluminium welding.
I would recommend this course to people that are interested in an introduction course on welding.
