Summary: A New MIG Machine Wasn¿t Enough
Review: 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.

Summary: Make more than just weld beads
Review: 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.
