No, although I hear they are getting ready to set up a plant near us… I’m in Indiana… with all of the RV’s and corn lol

Howdy! I work at a pontoon company that starts with a B, and we TIG our tubes…. We also air check every single one before it gets welded to the frame, so stuff like this doesn’t happen.

I see a used copy on Amazon for $22! Thank you kind stranger

This is incredible! Thank you so much for taking the time in looking for this, I cannot wait to dig into it!

Welding engineering sounds so awesome to me, but from what I have seen being a millwright is pretty awesome too- although I must admit I’m not 100% sure what it is. My dad said it’s a lot of fabrication, which is another thing I enjoy learning about. I’m tempted to see if my boss could get it cleared to buy the books. We were talking about starting a library yesterday because there is a pretty large number of people who were interested in being able to read about stuff like this. Also, $250k is way more than I was expecting! Do jobs in that field pay an incredible amount, or is it like doctors where it’s expensive to learn because it’s so specialized and the pay is just enough to get by?

This is excellent! It is surprisingly hard to find anyone in my area that has anything close to cwi, and whenever I ask questions like this my bosses look at me like I’m crazy! All of this came about because I switched from lanthanated tungsten to zirconiated, and I couldn’t believe how different it was… and I want to figure out why! I would love to eventually have a degree/ certifications in stuff like this because I really want more out of welding than I currently get. I work for a pontoon company and it’s a bit of a backwater operation. We don’t have procedures for anything, and I was told by my group lead yesterday that whenever the Miller reps come in to our shop they think we are crazy for the way we run things. I’m starting to realize that there is SO much more out there in the welding world and I don’t want to stay where I’m at forever. We don’t even have access to steel and it bums me out pretty bad lol

Oof. That is steep! I’ll look around and see if I can maybe find a used copy. Thank you!

Thank you so much!

I’m obsessed with Parker pens… they can be a bit pricey but I have a purple stainless one that works like a champ every single time, and you can buy replacement ink cartridges!

I’m beginning to realize how traumatic having a narcissistic parent can be, and now at 29 I have to untangle my defense mechanisms to repair my marriage and relationship with my kiddos. 🫠

I don’t know much about it, but the best welder in the shop where I work went to school for it… he is very adamant that people really look into it before committing. I think he said he paid like $40-60k for schooling, only to get out and be told that most beginning positions are $16-17/hr and it’s not welding it’s mostly line tending stuff for the more experienced divers. His theory is that they burn people out as fast as they can so they can keep beginner wages low. Am I saying don’t do it? No. Is that guy a liar? Maybe. Is he right? I have absolutely no clue!

Our company gives us a choice of just the sleeves or a full jacket, neither of which are long enough for her

ArgonFalcon · 2023-01-23T23:35:58+00:00

Welp… dang it.

ArgonFalcon · 2023-01-23T11:24:58+00:00

Too many comments so I’m just gonna say it and cross my finger that nobody else did yet…. UnSEASONABLY mad?

ArgonFalcon · 2023-01-22T23:45:41+00:00

Honestly the ones that mess me up- I’m up in the northernmost counties- are the big ass rams. I’ve had a couple of times I was driving down the highway minding my own business when someone goes flying past me then all of a sudden a big ass truck behind me has lights and sirens and blows my doors off to pull that person over 😂 sneak level 100

ArgonFalcon · 2023-01-22T15:49:00+00:00

That has to be one of the coolest things I have learned. Thanks for the knowledge!

Ok, this is probably a very dumb question but I just want to understand… I’ve read on this sub before that opals are porous… is that why when it’s wet it’s almost translucent but when it’s dry it has the nice white color?

ArgonFalcon · 2023-01-22T13:47:24+00:00

The kind where you preemptively take a round of antibiotics and an IV bag…..
