Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this metal working class:

The oxy-acetylene rig is one of the most versatile pieces of equipment in any metal shop. With an O/A rig you can cut and bend even heavy steel into all sorts of shapes, braze together lightweight material such as bike frames, weld and repair cast iron, and have the versatility to weld anywhere, in any weather, even with no power.
 
This 3 session class will teach you how to set up, operate, and shut down an oxy-acetylene rig without harming yourself, other people, or the equipment. It will demonstrate the basic uses of the O/A rig including welding, cutting, heating, and brazing. During each 3 hour session, we will cover the basics of these processes and students will practice using the equipment. By the end of this course, students will be able to use the O/A rig as a member safely and independently. 

Materials:
A $20 materials fee is included in the ticket price. The fee covers mild steel, cutting torch tips, filler rod, nickel silver brazing alloy, and paste brazing flux. Shade #5 goggles and gloves will be provided for each student. 

Must be 18 and over, no prior metalworking experience required. Co-ed class.
