I discovered a great way to reduce the financial burden: join a Makerspace.

Since joining a local one, I now know:

  • How to use a CNC laser cutter
  • How to use a thickness planer
  • How to use a MIG welder (poorly)
  • And, as of today, how to use a TIG welder (also poorly but, I did better than with the MIG)

Still to come:

  • How to use a terrifyingly powerful, 2.5 ton milling machine
  • How to use a similar size lathe
  • How to use a plasma cutter
  • How to use a fiber laser
  • How to use a vintage oscilloscope

And a ton more. Seriously, its awesome.

I'm so so jealous. The closest Makerspace to me is over 1 hour away.

I've absolutely fallen in love with TIG. I need a lot of practice but I've NEVER been able to lay as nice of a weld with stick or MIG.
