My name is Judah, and I am a young buck welder currently living in the hills of northern Kentucky. I've been following Jody's Youtube channel for quite a while now, and decided to jump onto these forums to learn even more and get to know folks with similar interests! I was started on welding about four years ago, but this past year I started a course in SMAW at our local tech center, and I am learning a ton! Currently, I'm working on my 3G guided bend test as well as on overhead, and really enjoying it! Most of my work has been in stick, but I've done a some MIG and a very small bit of TIG.
Blue machines and bowties are my preference, but I'll use anything. At the shop, we are spoiled by Miller XMT 304 multi-process units, but I also run my personal machine, a Hobart AC 225, and other older 220v stick machines. Soon I'll be in the market for a MM 252 or possibly a Multimatic 200. I'm sure that some of y'all have opinions on those machines, so I'll be snooping around here a bit later.
Currently, I'm working on a C-channel bumper and tubular headache rack for my pickup, but I have many other projects lined up. Just have to finish what I have on my plate at the moment.
Along with burning rods and twisting wrenches, I also make knives. For more information, please check out my website, Creation Knifeworks.Thanks for looking, and see you around!
