I wanted to start a thread where everyone can come to get answers to questions about welding. I notice that a good number of members are able to weld and often ask for advise.
A little about myself. I've been in the welding industry for about 8 years now. I've worked in several different industrial fabrication shops from Telecommunications to Oil & Gas. Currently I'm a CWI (certified welding inspector) for an aerospace company in Boca Chica, TX. I also do a lot of welding in my garage in different processes (SMAW, GMAW, FCAW, & GTAW) also quite frequently use an oxy/fuel setup & plasma cutter. I'm familiar with welding different types of metals as well (carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminum, etc.). At work I have access to a large group of people with decades of welding experience & knowledge.
I think that the biggest assets I can provide are identifying flaws in welds and how to repair them and/or prevent them from reoccurring. Anyway, I'm available for any discussions on welding so feel free to reach out.
@Chris If this thread is in the wrong location then feel free to move it to the appropriate location.
