274. Understanding How Welding Works w/ Al Curtis

Today's guest is Al Curtis a Welding Engineer out of Chattanooga Tennessee. I linked up with Al through a mutual contact, Kyle Carrol who I met at the Grand Opening of Underground Metal Works last year. Al is a wealth of information. We chat about his welding journey and then we take a deep dive into some of the more detailed fundamentals of welding that are often overlooked by welders and educators a like. There's a lot of great info in this episode so you may want to have a pen and paper ready to take notes.   Arc Junkies Podcast: Instagram: @Arcjunkiespodcast YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@arcjunkiespodcast9253 Email: [email protected] LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jason-becker-45407b72?lipi=urn%3Ali%3Apage%3Ad_flagship3_profile_view_base_contact_details%3BKipEwR3uQXCmCjaEfNzo6w%3D%3D Arc Junkies Website: https://arcjunkies.com Arc junkies Merch: https://shop.threadmob.com/arcjunkie/shop/home Underground Metal Works: https://www.underground-metalworks.com/   Friends of the Show: Rockmount Research and Alloys, Inc.
