The fact that you are reading this page tells me you are the kind of person that wants to constantly improve your welding skills.
One of the things I like about welding is that there is always something new to learn… Always.
After working with other welders since 1977 and teaching welders for over 20 years, I have learned a few things about welders and how people learn to weld…
We Welders are a different breed.
We typically learn by watching and by doing. Not just by reading.
When it comes to welding, the best learning often happens just by looking over someones shoulder and then trying it yourself. Especially when the someone showing you is explaining things to you in plain talk.
Video can be even better than looking over someone’s shoulder.
Why?
Because with Video on DVD, you can replay key scenes as many times as you want.
I am guessing that if you are reading this, at least one of the next few statements describes you:
- “I learn by getting my hands dirty.”
- “Just show me once and then move out of the way.”
- “I have slight issues with authority.” (whoa, where did that come from?!)
What is the one thing that makes all the difference in a good welding video?
Is it graphics? Ripple-dissolve transitions in between scenes? A deep radio voice on the narration?
I have purchased a few welding DVD’s myself and none of that stuff ever impressed me.
How about clear shots of the welding puddle and arc along with plain talk explaining what is going on? That’s what makes for a good welding video.
I talked with a welding instructor recently who ordered several hundred dollars worth of welding training videos from an educational website.
The videos were horrible… He was so disappointed when he first watched them because of the college professor’s monotone narration and lousy arc shots. His students hated them too so he put them in a drawer.
You won’t have that problem with this Welding DVD.
I am no College Professor.
I am a welder.
I dont use fancy terms, and I hate overly complicated explanations of anything.
But here is what you can expect in this Welding DVD set…
Over 7 hours of welding videos showing all kinds of different types of welding tasks that were done in a real job shop over a 12 month period. Arc shots that are clear and instructive and explained by a regular guy. A mix of carbon steel, stainless, and aluminum welding shots.
It took 4 DVD discs to fit all these videos.
So what’s on these Discs?

Jody,
Thanks for compiling these great videos. We learned TIG on the net, mostly from you. No one beats your close ups!
Love this:
“I have slight issues with authority.”
Best,
Rob

G’day Jody I thank you for the time and effort you have put into my training and thank you for being my teacher. I graduated and found a new job thanks to your tips and tricks. I am looking at buying a ac/ad everlast 230ex inverter tig have you used this machine. I know you did a video on a everlast tig but differant model. Just thinking if you could give me your opinion on such a unit.
Regards
Graeme

Jody:
Hello: I graduate from school tomorrow and am heading to Louisiana hoping to find a job. I have a weld test there Tuesday. As I bought your tig finger, (after all the confusion) I can’t wait to get a job and afford the full set, as I never did TIG much, but have watched many of your videos to the point you make it look so easy, I am frustrated when it doesn’t work the same for me! I do appreciate the 20-30 minutes you gave me on the phone, and will continue to keep your sites and video’s at the top of my training list.

Hey Jody,
I’m very interested in your DVD’s, but there’s two questions: are the available in PAL? and do you ship to Switzerland?
PS: I’m a real fan of your channel 🙂
Greetings from cold and damp Switzerland,
