I agree with upred and the rest. Welding isnt just something you can jump into and expect to make a ton of money with minimal training. In my area ethanol plants are and have been the big thing for quite some time. The nice paychecks draw people from all around. Many of these people are turned away because of lack of formal training. Just because somebody can weld with a wire-feed or stick welder in flat position doesnt mean they can weld. Dont get me wrong, because I am not trying to discourage you from welding, I am trying to Encourage you to seek proper training. Another word of wisdom, dont go into the welding classroom thinking you know everything there is to know and are just looking for a certificate. I've watched too many prospective welders leave the trade because they were too proud to learn a few things. Best of luck to you, as it wasnt too many years ago that I was in your shoes wanting to weld right out of highschool.
