195. Where has Welding Taken You w/ Gary Konarska

from Arc Junkies · host Jason Becker

Today I am chatting with Gary Konarska Executive Director and CEO of the American Welding society. Gary is such a cool guy, down to earth and has a really cool story of how welding has provided him a great career. We talk about his welding journey, automation, sub arc welding, overseas travel and the current state of the industry.
