I am going to take some of the classes first before i get a welder, and i'll talk to the teacher. I dont know much about this welding program. My school has a learning factory where they will teach you how to weld. Its mainly for eningenering students to teach them some hands on skills(though must of them cant fold a cardbord box) anyway its free and they said they will teach me how to weld. Im trying to make a master plan where pennstate funds and provides the facility for me to build a 3 window coupe or roadster hhmm? Does anyone know much about the hobart handler 140 from what you guys have tought me it seems like a good welder. they are new on ebay for $429.
