Welding is a passion, It's not just the fusion of two metals on an assembly line, or pulling the trigger of a mig gun while standing in a cubicle, making the same thing over and over and over. It's about thinking, designing and understanding what works and what does not. When I describe being a welder I'm talking about making revisions, or repairs that cause a part to function better, or correcting a miscalculation that caused failure in the assembly.Repairing a broken tanker, or storage tank, or correcting the way a winch truck loads a particular tank is far more preferable.
