go buy a mig, get some gas and play

it takes about 20 minutes to get it, and another 2 months to get it right.

go to a community college and get a certificate if you want to learn a bit more than the self-taught way

Man, I hate burning my eyes. Yes, I've done it. Yes, more than once.

Like sand in your eyes from the moment you wake up until god knows when.

are you talking about TED 122

that wasnt a welding class, it was a metal working class

although they did go over oxy-actyl gas welding/brazing, and stick welding

But TiG and MiG are both more important, IMO

a helmet is obvious....but also invest in a decent pair of gloves too....i tried doing without these for all of about 17 seconds

Northern tools website sells some training DVDs. I've got the one for gas cutting
and found it very useful.
Can't comment on the mig and tig dvds.

he had peeling raccoon eye for like 2 weeks.

TED 122 no longer exists. That was the metal class
Now there is TED 110. That covers metal, wood, and plastic.
