Welding Lessons

Welding is a fabrication process that fuses together materials by heat, pressure, or a combination of both. The practice is part of making parts for machines and other practical uses, as well as part of people who make metal art.

Typically associated with metalwork, the practice of welding goes back many years and is also used on thermoplastics. A welded joint is often referred to as a weldment. The practice is distinct from soldering and brazing, which does not melt the parent material. There are various energy sources and techniques used in the practice of welding, making it a deep and diverse field.

FAQ

Is welding easy to learn?
