Event Details

Come play with i3Detroit's welders! This evening will cover the basics of arc welding, including:

Choosing a workspace

Choosing a welder

Materials you can weld this way

Goggles, gloves, and clothing

Basic welding technique

 

Class Safety
Welders should wear work or shop clothes without openings or gaps to prevent arc rays from contacting the skin.  Those working close to arc welding should also wear protective clothing.  Clothing should always be kept dry, including gloves.  Cloths should consist of 100% cotton.  Some of the welding will produce strong IR/UV rays which will cause nasty sun burns.  You've been warned.

 

Spots are very limited for this class, please sign up now if you're interested, and please relinquish your seat if you learn that you're unable to attend.

We have helmets but only a few. REQUIRED FOR CLASS PARTICIPATION!!!

Organizer

i3 Detroit

i3 Detroit is a DIY collective in Ferndale, with tools and resources to facilitate a wide variety of projects. The name stands for "Imagine, Innovate, and Inspire".

Supported by its members but open to guests as well, i3 Detroit's facility hosts workshops and classes as often as possible. Led by volunteer instructors (mostly members), these are usually free, but may require a materials fee for participation.

When there's no class happening (and sometimes when there is!), you'll usually find members in the space, soldering, sewing, welding, sculpting, programming, woodworking, or just hanging out.

Founded in 2009, i3 Detroit has about 70 members and funds its operation mostly through member dues. Donations from students and guests are always appreciated, and have the potential to substantially increase our resources!
