    Exclamation TIG time...

    OK here is the deal....

    Seeing as my sidekick Tozzi is AWOL I think I will be doing a solo act in the future...

    With that out of the way...
    What I would like to do is get members that have never been here a chance to learn/improve their TIG skills....
    I would like to keep it down to 4 or 5 members so every one gets ample seat time so it's worth their while....

    No date has been set yet..

    For those that don't know the shop is located in North Attleboro, Mass...

    Interested?

    Let. me know.....
    More information to follow....


    ...zap!


    I am not completely insane..
    Some parts are missing

    Do not attempt.

    Just because I'm a dumbass don't mean that you can be too.
    So DON'T try any of this **** l do at home.

    Hey Zap, I see you are putting this out to new bees first and that is only right. I have been to you classes twice and have learned a lot. If you do not get the interest from new people, I would love to attend.

    Unfortunately too far (2371 miles) for me as well.

    But I would kill to have the opportunity for one-on-one instruction with Zapster (or ZTFab). Either one producing picture perfect welds that leave me shaking my head.

    Re: TIG time...

    Two things:

    Please update us on Tozzi when appropriate. When I was back in Boston in October I wanted to look him up, but I was too busy Leaf Peeping.

    I would LOVE to sit down with you and learn what ever I could about TIGing. That being said, five hours in a jet plane (cattle car) is not going to happen. If JayLo was going to be there, topless, serving free drinks then maybe five hours jammed into a airliner might happen.

    Maybe "For Hire" could put one on here in Washington.

    I'm interested but work some weekends. Depending on the date, I'd love to be in.

    Re: TIG time...

    Maybe it's just me being a relative newbie, but I've got no idea where that easy chair is? If a short flight on the West Coast, I might be interested.

    Ahhh, I should try "reading for comprehension". Not sure how I missed that, sorry. Anyway, with flights over $700 (from memory), I'm out...
