Check out the latest release from TAB Books! The TAB Guide to DIY Welding is a self-teaching guide for hobbyists, handymen, and artists. It show you how to get started with metal-inert gas (MIG) welding (the easiest to learn) and metalworking. In addition to teaching you how to use the MIG welder, the book provides illustrated instructions on being safe, setting up a workspace, selecting and sourcing steel, properly using the right tools, and getting acquainted with the oxy-acetylene torch and plasma cutter. You also get step-by-step walkthroughs for several projects, including making a barbeque grill, a table, a garden cart, fireplace log holders, and more. Maybe you thought welding and metalwork were beyond your abilities, but author Jackson Morley makes it all simple and clear! Jackson studied industrial design at the University of Kansas and currently teaches sheet metal forming, bicycle maintenance, and MIG welding courses at the Steel Yard in Providence, Rhode Island.
