My Welding Experience!

Image
Hello again, I'm back with another post for my blog. These last couple of weeks I've been in the process of  learning a new skill from my machines and tools class. I learned how to weld! In this post I will also show you the steps so you can also weld.  Q:So what's the first step? A: First things first, I started off by looking around the room for some metal I could use. I found a piece but it was huge in length so I had to cut it down into several pieces.  Q:How did you cut down the metal into several pieces? A: The way I cut it down is by using this saw that is used specifically for this type of job. It is a metal cut-off saw. I had to cut off the pieces by four inches long. Q: What type of safety precautions did you take while handling this type of machinery?

While I was working on some class projects, I noticed that most sheet metal that was lying around was covered in rust. Which meant that I could not use the metal because its appearance would make my project look bad. Although I could ignore the pieces covered in rust, I decided to do something about. I am going to use a specific tool that removes most rust and any other thing that is on the surface. Question: What tool removes rust from sheet metal? Answer: The machine above is called a Sand Blaster Cabinet. The machines spray gun shoots little sand particles fast enough to remove all stains and rust.
