I think for those of you that have some experience with the tig basically need to decide what you want more of out of this class, tig welding thicker metal is a totally different beast then sheetmetal. When you weld on sheetmetal that needs to be metalfinished you aren't as concerned with laying down nickels as you are controlling your heat and not warping your piece. Where as with thick metals you want a nice row of nickels that has the proper penetration. It would be hard to teach both because along with welding sheetmetal comes the time that will be spent teaching proper metal finishing technique.

At this point I'd like to focus on TIG welding sheetmetal and the metal finishing. I've got a 63 Nova that will need a few panels and some minitubs first. Then if Rodger does this a second time I can focus on TIG welding the thicker metals.

Once I have the 12 people nailed down I will finalize the teachers for each discipline. Plus get any extra equipment needed like welding machines located.

I will try my hardest to get there in May. It would be foolish to pass up on this at this price. Just compare the prices of some of these similar classes and you'll see this is a real good price. Would bringing our own machines help out?
