🔧 Welding II: Intermediate Welding and Fabrication
Ages 12–17
Prerequisite: Welding I. Introduction to Welding and Fabrication
Five Consecutive Mondays
September 21 to October 19, 2026
10 AM to 1 PM
Tuition: $499 per student

Welding II is designed for students who have completed Welding I and are ready to advance their skills through more complex fabrication challenges. This intermediate program strengthens foundational techniques while introducing design concepts, applied mathematics, and precision layout skills that are essential for higher‑level metalwork.

Across five hands‑on workshop sessions, students learn how to plan and execute multi‑component projects that require accuracy, measurement, and thoughtful sequencing. Instruction emphasizes clean fit‑ups, precise cutting, and improved weld quality.

📐 What Students Will Learn
Design principles for small‑scale fabrication

Applied mathematics for layout and measurement

How to calculate angles and lengths for accurate fit‑ups

Techniques for creating precise miter cuts

Methods for constructing complex shapes, including fitting a welded circle inside a perfect square

Improved heat control, cleaner welds, and more refined finishing techniques

🛠️ Projects
Students complete several intermediate‑level projects throughout the course. Each project reinforces new skills and encourages creative problem-solving. All completed work goes home with the student at the end of the program.

⭐ Program Highlights
Small class sizes for individualized instruction

Daily hands‑on welding and fabrication practice

Emphasis on accuracy, planning, and craftsmanship

Supportive and safety‑focused workshop environment

🔥 Safety Requirements
Because we work with open flames and power tools, all students must wear non‑flammable clothing (no nylon or polyester) and closed‑toed shoes.

Additional time for project fit and finish might be added during open studio hours (Tuesday and Thursday evenings, 6-9 PM) at no additional cost to participants.
No prior experience is necessary!
