I am at a trade school right now and while I will say most anyone can weld some people may be too retarded to adjust their technique and electrode position to gain correct weld puddle control.

A lot of guys get butt mad they can't do perfect stringers after 100 hours of classwork. It easily takes 500+ hours of time to start getting acceptable stuff almost all the time and even then you will have fuckups.

I've heard it takes "10,000 Hours of hands on time" to master a skill. Be it driving, playing the piano, jerking off, etc.... and that's 10K hours of active participation in that skill.

A lot of people who have burned out of the course have some things in common, they are 18 to 20 years old, a know it all, claim unusual lies and stories to be adimantly true, often fat (fat dudes suck balls at metal prep and overhead welding in my opinion but a lot of people who have dropped out are fat), drug addicted, and generally retarded and unwilling to change after given advice. All the other stuff is just icing on the cake for failure if they are unwilling to change given advice in knowledge.

If you are willing to change given advice and knowledge you too can weld.

Check out weldingtipsandtricks on youtube. That Jodie dude helped me out starting but he needs to accept he's balding lol.

It would also leave him a bigger fag than he already is. Which is impressive.
