2 Blueprint Reading for Welders Ninth Edition A.E. Bennett, Louis J. Siy This hands-on, reader-friendly guide provides comprehensive, up-to-date coverage of welding symbols and their application to welding prints and practices. Blueprint Reading for Welders uses step-by-step instructions and detailed illustrations to help students gain the knowledge and skills they need to interpret a wide range of working documents, from simple sketches to the most complex blueprints. The text covers auxiliary views, detail views, projections, sections, and detail and assembly drawings. Now updated and expanded, the new ninth edition features the latest AWS symbols and terms along with the ISO welding symbols, current specifications and dimensioning practices, relevant industry developments, and cutting-edge information to help modern professionals succeed in this dynamic field. 1.

3 Metalworking Doing it Better: Machining, Welding, Fabricating First Edition Tom Lipton This collection of priceless tips, tricks, skills, and experiences from a veteran of the trade is presented in a way that captures the students attention and engages them in the process of furthering their skills. It includes shop-tested descriptions and illustrations of creative and unique techniques and observations from four decades in the metalworking trades. This resource will help any metalworker do better work and do it faster! Hundreds of shop-tested techniques are covered. These creative and unique techniques have been shop-tested by the author the old-fashioned way, by repetition and hard work. This resource also features hundreds of four-colour photographs personally photographed by the author to illustrate the methods he describes in the book. 1. Diving In 2. Brain Food 3.

4 Welding and Metal Fabrication First Edition Larry Jeffus Welding and Metal Fabrication employs a unique hands-on, project-based learning strategy to teach welding skills effectively and keep students highly motivated. This new text connects each welding technique to a useful and creative take-home project, making exercises both practical and personal for students and avoiding the tedium of traditional, repetitive welding practices. To further enhance the learning process, every welding project includes a set of prints with specifications, like those used in production fabrication shops. This full-featured approach to skill-building reflects the reality of professional welding, where following prints and instructions precisely and laying out, cutting out, and assembling weldment accurately are just as essential as high-quality welding. 1.
