I know this post was made quite a while ago but I was wondering if there were ever any blueprints or anything similar made to go along with the toolboxes? I am a first year teacher and I think my ag mechanics classes would love to do a project like this. Thanks!

Teaching Arc weldin

Hi, I am a first year teacher and am just starting to get kids interested in the shop. However, I am unfamiliar with teaching the beginning of arc welding. How do you start this lesson and are there any lectures/PowerPoints I could use? What do you recommend?
