Default My Dad teach me how to weld

I really like welding.
While I was growing up in Flint, Michigan, my dad, brother, and I would make and fix all kinds of things. My dad instilled his philosophy in me at a young age: “Why pay someone else to do something you can do yourself?” We enjoyed fixing everything from cars to bicycles, dishwashers, and TVs. I have been welding for years.
Hope to find more people who likes welding.

John,
Thanks
