My Project

Welding is an important aspect of any quality agricultural mechanics classroom. However, learning to do it safely is vital. Many times I'm faced with the dilemma of finding welding safety equipment large enough to fit some of my bigger students.

Welding Safety for Big Boys is about making sure that I can provide a safe and inclusive learning environment for students of all sizes.

I have to ensure that all students are properly attired in a safe manner before I can allow them to participate in the welding shop. Having plus size jackets are a must to ensure this happens.
