While on the hunt to upskill in TIG, I got directed to the 'old white haired man around the corner', Oom Willie. And so the journey began in investing in practical skills which YouTube couldn't deliver. Questions, practicals, explanations, all so worth taking the time to learn. As a DIY, I highly recommend upskilling oneself to understand and know how to use your equipment better. Also a huge thanks for accommodating us during the weekend, highly appreciate you, Willie and Rita, for the skills development you've been offering. Happy sparking.
