I am done arguing, it is pointless
lets get this out first...... AWS contest>>>>>>>10x's >>>>> skills contest
I won the AWS contest in SMAW (stick) in which i was competing against more that just students i was competing against "in the industry welders" aka old guys
over 65 people if i remember right
with open root joints and out of position
that is where i won my 200 dollar hood

ok so the people that weld all of our space shuttles airplanes race cars our fucking pipe welders. just got all of there exp from welding at places like Case and Dmi Bobcat? Get really, fuck so you can put down a flat bead and you think you can weld, shit. School matters if you want to do something other then production lines. Just my 2 cents.

Just my 2 cents.The only reason school matters for those things is because you have a certificate that says you dedicated 2 years of your life to learn everything there is to know about welding. That knowledge doesnt make their welds look better or make them stronger.

+1 for zac challengeing Dave Lynne's to a weld off. Dave would make your welds look like shit on pipe. In fact Chad that works there will do the same to you.
I know Spray, Globular, Short Circuit etc. so way to go assuming shit without actually know most powerful welder from above. I guess that means since I just went to school for 2 weeks all i should know is how to turn on my machine right? Damn I got screwed.

without getting into any specific stories ive personally witnessed...
i saw the three of you weld all sorts of things about six months ago and you both have to admit there was a lot of, "hey zac, c'mere!"

when was the last time you or anyone on this site welded titanium, what the fuck are getting at?that if i didnt go to school i wouldnt have a damn clue what to do because you have to have pure argon. its the fact that there are 100s of gas mixtures out there and that is half the game having the right gases at places like Case and Dmi they have set guide lines. so dont start saying that you can weld better then other people. because MIG is easy

Zac is a more skilled welder than I am, so i asked him for help. If I remember correctly it was out of position. He is a skilled person, that doesnt mean school did that to him.

I wouldnt want a doctor standing over me in the ER calling for someone that COULD weld titanium, had ATTEMPTED to weld titanium, or even KNEW how to weld titanium, because he only went to daves school of welding for eight weeks....

there was some titanium welded in town recently by people who frequent these boards.
-
best welding ive done is my torching my glove!

oh wow
A.
the only person i was calling out here is Thurmanmurman because he made a fucking idiotic statement that insulted my education, no one elseB.
I was pointing out that i would embarrass dumbass in any process, not DaveC.
I am sure the class is a good class, it gives a good intorduction to someone without any welding experienceD.
NDSCS's welding program is an awsome one, we learned hell of alot more than just running a bead.......... like CNC programming, Jigging, Ect.....E.
Sure i welded alot before school, but you dont think i am an exponentially better welder now? ....get realD.
I was tight with my second year instructor, and workstudied with him.... where i did tons of various projects, so i guess i got more out of it than mostE.
Thrumanmuman you dont even have a measurable percentage of knowledge that i do of welding, periodF.
Ergo,............... I AM A BETTER WELDER -
