The Welder's Handbook:
There are many factors involved in producing good welds in metal: the equipment
used, the filler metal used, the preparation of the parts to be welded, and
especially, the correct application of heat to the weld.
Welding Basics:
In the past 10-15 years, the major welding machine manufacturers have
developed small, efficient welders for home shop use. Many of these even draw
from a standard 120v outlet. For the price of a low to mid-range table saw, a
home welder can buy a good quality MIG welding machine. According to welding
service stores, up to one third of their customers are home hobbyists. This
book is aimed at the beginning to intermediate level home welder-anyone who
wishes to use welding to repair or create objects around the home. An overview
of welding basics, materials, metal forming, and safety will be followed by
step-by-step how-to projects with full color photos. Featured projects include
simple shop furniture, baker's shelf, arbor, garden gate, and garden bench.
