There have been several occasions where I’ve wished I knew how to weld.

Now that I have the time and want to replace/fix the rocker panels in my van I found a 3 hour course to learn to weld. https://www.les-affutes.ca/en/workshops/welding/the-fundamentals-of-electrode-welding/

Do you have any particular recommendations other than the broad “practice, practice”?

(By the way I see that there has been much activity in this sub but I also know that the only way of having activity is posting)

    Went to the class. Obviously, 3 hours is wetting my toes, but I wonder why I didn’t do it before!

    At least I know that I learnt a bit of flat joining and that I would need to learn other techniques for vertical welding, angle welding and others. I hadn’t realized there were differences.

    I hope others chime in with advice of tips and things to focus on.
