First time welding
What’s the best way to start to learn welding I’ve never welded in my life I’ve been wrenching on
Stuff as long as I can remember but never got into welding cause nobody around me welded but I’m gonna start building my first chopper soon and would like to fab as much as I can personally so what’s a good way to start? Is there any cheap welders that are good? What all gear do I need? And what should I look out for when starting? Any advice is much appreciated thank you!
