Question from Gabriella K.

I'm interested in this class, but I would like to know, what is a "tea light candle table?'

Answer from Michelle G. Verified Educator

Here are some examples: http://prntscr.com/qm9y10, http://prntscr.com/qm9ycw. In class, people choose metal to create a small sculpture. If you would like to make it functional, you then braze a small sheet on top for a candle. Each candle stand is unique, as people have a choice of metal to use.

Answer

Question from Anonymous

If I would like to take the TIG welding course (interested in building bicycle frames), should I take this course first?

Answer from Brenda L. CourseHorse Staff

Hi there! Yes, the student should at least have taken Gas welding or Mig welding or Arc Welding to be able to take the Introduction to Tig Welding. Hope this helps!

This was my first oxyacetylene class and it was such a wonderful experience. Michelle is an incredibly knowledgeable and natural teacher. She made me feel confident about working with the torch and described everything very thoroughly. On top of that, she is very friendly and we had great conversation. I learned so much and I’m looking forward to taking more classes in the very near future!! Thank you for a truly enjoyable class!

Michelle was great- I learned so much in one class and came home with my first sculpture. I am looking forward to more!

Great class! Michelle is very thorough and technical, giving lots of detail. She also makes the class fun with a project and lots of knowledge on all welding topics!

Michelle was an EXCELLENT teacher. I learned so much, was not afraid of the equipment and felt I walked away with a path on areas to explore and skills to learn. I highly recommend this class as a way to learn, in depth, and to establish a baseline for Oxy-Acetylene Gas Welding.
