Newbie welding videos

[Sid]

For a complete 'noob' like me (with no one to directly learn from), there was a lot in these videos that I found very helpful. Very basic to most of you but I'm very glad I found them.

They are from the University of California, and they try to prepare the students for making their projects.

They're over an hour between them, and I feel a lot more confident to get my hands on a welder now.

They look good. Thanks for the link.

Internet can be great....when it's not trying to steal your bank details.

araspitfire, those are real good.

I learned a few things on stick welding. The series is good.

I did notice they had a Miller MIG welder the same vintage as mine; late '70s
