This video is the first video in a brand new welding series called
How to become a WELDER!

This series is about anything and everything about welding including safety, setup, proper operation, diagnosing bad welds, and making cool welding projects. This first episode is a brief introduction to all of the different welding machines out there and we discuss what the pros and cons are for each of them. We also talk about what welder should be your first welder to start learning on and some advice about what welder should be your first purchased welder.

Way of the Wrench is pleased to announce that we have partnered up with the Canadian Welding Association (CWB Group) and are looking forward to producing more amazing welding content for this new series.
