Welding training starts!

last week, it was our group to go for gas welding.sadly, having not enough gas we were only able to watch our instructor show how to weld a metal with gas welding technique. this week, its my group turn to go for arc welding. the skills for arc welding are simple. in my understanding, to weld a metal with arc welding is like lighting a match.here are some of the picture of us welding.

Brief explanation about gas welding and arc welding

its the day of the week! we are all going to the workshop again, last time we could not do anything becausse most of us did not wear the appropriate equipment to begin our work in the workshop. but this time, its different, all of us spent our own money for the sake of learning what engineer really do. we were splitted up to two groups, one group goes to the gas welding area and the other group went to the arc welding area.

 picture on the left is a place where the gas that were kept for gas welding. as you can see, all five tanks are connected together. in my understanding, this is done because, why use one tanks for just one student when you can connect all the tanks for all the student to use
