My Project

I am hoping someone will be willing to fund these machines for my students. These will be used in the classroom environment to help with muscle memory so that the students can use proper speed, distance, and angle before and during their actual welder education journey preparing for their future careers. Most of our students come from challenging backgrounds but are determined to make a better future through our program. our program pays for most of our consumables and some are donated by local companies.

My goal is to introduce more welding processes and be able to advance the students faster through the use of technology.

We will be starting welding three next year and this equipment would drive this course with a better understanding at a faster pace. It will be able to drive their learning experience hands-on without running through the material but be more efficient when we go into the shop.

Thank you so much for your consideration.
