Joe Slattery, a professional welder and experienced trainer, leads these workshops. With a maximum enrollment of six, he will work with you at your own pace. His goal is to help you solve problems with welding, not just learn how to weld.
We take safety seriously. You will be required to wear proper clothing, helmets, and eye protection. We rent helmets and gloves, or you can bring your own. You will be taught safe procedures and materials handling. We will not tolerate unsafe behavior.
Joe Slattery is professional welder and metalworker. Originally from Arizona, Joe has called Central Oregon home for decades. He cut his welding teeth with Lockheed, eventually running their training and induction program for new welders. Joe has worked on everything metal under the sun, and his metal shop is a showcase of technology and useful equipment. Underneath that welder exterior though beats the heart of a true educator. Joe is patient and a great communicator, and has been able to help everyone from teenagers to crusty old ranch hands build welding skills. We're very lucky to have Joe on our team, and are sure you will enjoy his workshop.

Minors can attend if accompanied by an adult.
They will be held in Powell Butte in the shop of the trainer, a professional welder. We have six training stations setup.
We supply welders and you can rent gloves and a helmet from us, or you can bring you own. You must bring your own safety glass and wear appropriate clothing - no synthetic, heavy shirt and pants (jeans are ok), and leather shoes. Bring earplugs!
We used to allow this, but found that helping people set up and use their equipment took too much time away from other participants. You can talk with Joe about helping you, which he can decide to do on his own for a consulting fee.
Yes. We limit attendance to six people, and have six stations each with its own welder.
