Intro to MIG Welding: Hands-On Workshop

Ready to spark your creativity and pick up a powerful new skill? This MIG welding class in Chicago is perfect for total beginners and anyone looking to refine their technique in a relaxed, supportive setting. You’ll receive one-on-one instruction as you dive into the world of metalwork—and walk away with a finished project you can proudly take home.

In this hands-on experience, you’ll learn welding safety, how to handle essential tools, and how to prep materials for a clean, strong weld. Through guided practice, you’ll explore foundational MIG welding techniques and discover how they can be applied to both creative and practical projects.

Whether you’re flying solo, coming with a friend, or organizing a team-building activity, this welding workshop offers a fun and empowering way to learn something new.
