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!"
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....

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 -

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.Grammar > you

You insulted my schooling. Just cause you went to a certified college doesn't mean shit to me. Whoopie you got a piece of paper that say you can weld. Now no doubt you are a good welder(ive seen your work) I just don't see the point of going to a 2 year school when I can learn alot of the industry in 2 weeks and be able to hold my own. Go ahead tell me I can't weld and that im stupid and I don't know anything about welding. I know what I know and ive only been in this industry for under 3 months. But I guess ill take my 2G cert that i already have and go sulk cause im a horrible welder. I need to find a new career I guess.

FYI you don't have to take a class to get cert'd since everyone keeps talking about school to get a piece of paper.
You could walk in my door tomorrow and say i took this class went to this school, i gte this certificate but its not gonna matter im gonna walk you back to the machine and tell you to lay me a bead. Schooling and papers mean nothing to me if you cant run a bead. Exactly why i did't go to college i cant concentrate reading a damn book and writing a written test but give me the work hands on and i'll do it.
