Q&A infomation format for your welding fabrication and repairs February 18, 2008
PTSideshow (Macomb County Michigan)
Again in the Q&A format, Dealing with real world fabrication issues. And tips and insights for solving them. They give clear concise info on the correct terms and descriptions. Of steel, piping, tubing, and other stuff we tend not to know the correct terms or use age of scheduling # of pipe/tube and the wall thickness. Again the contents page and the back cover says it all.
This book like the first book on welding is for the hobbyist/art/occasional welder. Along with the daily working welder. It covers tools,terms and descriptions that most Hobbyist/artists might not know when going to a supplier.It gives a basic over view of tools that are useful in a welding shop area. Covers repairs and the proper way of doing the planning,layout and execution of a job. bending of assorted shapes and ways for tubing and pipes. It will give you a very good idea if it will work, if you can do it with what you have. Or even what you may need to get to do a job you can be proud of.
It is a great shop reference with out the usual extra baggage of the text books they sell.

This book is a handfull of badly written questions with answers that are so specific, unless you are doing the exact project/task they mention, the answers are totally useless. These are all trade specific answers. If youre a pipe fitter, or professional fabricator I would think you'd have a better way of learning than this book. Also the lack of an index makes this book infuriating to try and use as reference. Thank god I got this book free. Too bad there's not an option for zero stars.
Also note that all of the other reviews for this book are either anonymous or written by Mr. Tallman who is related to the illustrator.

A New MIG Machine Wasnyt Enough August 10, 2002
34 out of 34 found this review helpful
I bought a MIG welding machine and quickly learned to put down nice weld beads. But when I tried to weld up a project with angle iron, I quickly discovered I didn't know how to make anything. This book shows how to make square frames, and assemble other basic building blocks. There are also lots of rules of thumb and good industry practice, but no heavy math. If you're like me, you will save a lot of time, steel, and welding materials if you read this book before starting your welding project. Many helpful drawings.

This is not your typical welding book. It's about how to use welding to make things, not how to make welds. If you want to build welded frames, tables, boxes, and join pipe, or repair truck frames, this is the book for you. There's also a good chapter on bending and straightening metals, and another on metal fatigue. Also, lots of how advice on solving--or avoiding--common welding problems. This book is written in plain English with a drawing on nearly every page.
