Albeit critical, understanding how to lay a proper weld bead from one metal to the next is only about 35-40% of the job of being an actual Fabricator. Cutting, grinding, and manipulating the work piece is a large part of what it means to actually fabricate something.

Along with these core tasks, problem-solving, troubleshooting, and finding solutions can greatly increase how effective you are in a shop environment as a Welder – Metal Fabricator.
