  • Several Regions have held meetups already, but others are being planned or are evaluating the interest. The Calgary Area Meetup is set for Saturday July 12th at 10am. The signup thread is here! Arbutus has also explored interest in a Fraser Valley meetup but it seems members either missed his thread or had other plans. Let him know if you are interested in a meetup later in the year by posting here! Slowpoke is trying to pull together an Ottawa area meetup later this summer. No date has been selected yet, so let him know if you are interested here! We are not aware of any other meetups being planned this year. If you are interested in doing something in your area, let everyone know and make it happen! Meetups are a great way to make new machining friends and get hands on help in your area. Don’t be shy, sign up and come, or plan your own meetup!

Does anyone know of any welding teachers in Burlington or Halton area?

I recently bought a welding setup to start learning basic welding in my "spare" time, and I'd really like to find someone local who can teach me the basics. I know I can just use Youtube and learn myself by building projects, but I'd like to excellerate the learning process (if possible) by having someone walk me through the basics. Hopefully, that way I can try and avoid common mistakes, as well as avoiding bad habits. I'd like to build a new lathe stand very soon and would rather not spend months fumbling my way through that project. :)

I'm more than happy to pay them for the lessons, I just don't want to have to take a full course at a community college as I have no intentions of making it into a career. And my searches for workshops hasn't really turned up any results.

Thanks,

Jason
