3. Here are some of the tools and safety
equipment we use in the welding workshop.
welding leathers
welding gloves
square
welding
shield
welding
legs
hammer
ruler chipping
hammer
welding sleeves
4. We must have the tools at hand and ordered in a logical way.
We measure the material with the ruler.
We remove the slag and clean up
the weld with the chipping hammer
and the wire brush.
5. This is a machine tool. It is an electric
cicular saw. It is used for cutting metal.
6. We use these three mechanic
tools for cutting and bending
the pieces of material.
7. This is an arc welding machine. It converts
120-240 volt AC electricity to welding
voltage, typically 40-70 volts AC.
8. The welder must wear safety clothes
to prevent the damage of sparks.
Here, the welder is putting on the “welding boots”.
9. The “welding leathers” is a specially insulated leather apron.
The “welding sleeves” are also made of leather.
10. The “welding shield” is a mask which is worn to protect
the person welding, from the bright flash of the arc
and from sparks being thrown during welding.
The “welding gloves” are insulated leather gloves
that reach about six inches above the wrists.
12. The ground clamp is attached to the work piece. and
completes the electrical circuit.
It completes the electrical circuit allowing the
electricity to pass through the metal being welded.
