Welding Shop

The Idea Forge houses a shop specifically for welding purposes. It contains four MIG machines in individual stations, one large MIG machine (with an aluminum spool gun attachment), and two TIG machines. Everything else you might need to complete a project – cutting tools, pedestal and angle grinders, clamps, vises, files, measuring tools, welding rod, hoods, jackets, and advice – are available. Completion of a welding workshop is required for access to the welding shop.
