Welding Shop

My work provided me with a week of welding training. Seems fair since I sit at a computer and stare at weld prints and simulate welding all day long at my job. My work thought that it would be a good idea for me to understand why certain things are how they are (like torch angles, why certain things have to be welded different ways, etc.).
The training was a 40 hour class at the Front Range Community College right here in town. It was an incredible shop. In this picture, the tables on the left are oxy-acetylene torches, which can pierce through a inch of steel quicker than I can cut a piece of bread. The red machines in front of that are the TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas) welders, and behind those, the MIG (Metal inert Gas) welders - all along the back wall (in the next image).
