2010 Advanced Maintenance Welding Workshop

"When the economy slows down, people tend to fix things instead of replacing them," Tom Cook, welding instructor says. "That's good news for welders because welders know how to fix stuff."

Tom taught welding at Cornell University for over 20 years, and he owns and operates a welding and fabrication shop in upstate New York. He will be in Michigan to offer two welding workshops in February. The workshops are an entertaining blend of lecture (full of personal stories and real-life examples), live demonstrations (sometimes loud, always hot), and hands-on activities (bring your work clothes). Details below and attached.
