Hi Lewis and welcome. I have done some electric welding with a stick welder with satisfactory results. A while back, I asked the list if anyone knew how a blind guy could MIG weld. The answers were not encouraging. There didn't seem to be anyone who knew the techniques and steps for a blind guy to use to get the job done.
I would love for you to give us a lesson in both MIG and TIG welding as a blind guy. They would be a GREAT resource for our Files page. Personally, I am more interested in the MIG welding lesson. However, I would also love to hear how a blind guy does TIG welding with it's foot control peddle and basically using an electric torch and fill rod to do the job. I anxiously await your lessons on these welding techniques for blind guys.

A new member and blind professional at your service :) Hello all My name's Lewis I'm 22 years old and am a specialist in woodwork here in the United kingdom. I also deal in fabrications and engine repairs mainly for aggricultural tools including lawnmowers, chainsaws and the likes of. I teach general and specific subjects on requests and am willing to talk people on here through specific things. whether it be servicing a lawnmower engine or using the right tool for the job or even recommendations for tooling etc. I deal with welding work as well as a fabricator in the sculpturing side of things and use some rather powerful equipment including blast cutters, stihl saws etc and gas welders as well as my personal favourite my mig, tig and arc welders. if you want to learn to use certain tools you never thought of using, get in touch. you'll think I'm mad but anyone can use a welder with the right advice, use a chainsaw etc. I'm the proud owner of 3 chainsaws for carving, splitting, skinning and felling work. and I do all this with feel in mind. I am completely blind and have been for a long time. anyhow if you want to ask anything please feel free to contact me any time and I'll be able to help yours lewis Alexander EMAIL: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]) MSN Messenger contact: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]) SKYPE (demonstrations, live chat and more: theblindmusician2006 Mobile number: 07857 352828 If you say you can't do it then in your heart and mind you can. so don't let anyone stop you.
