Satisfied Testers
“The class I took at Underground Metalworks was absolutely amazing and has upped my metalworking skill without a doubt. The facility is well rounded with state of the art equipment and tools to get the job done. Jason is a huge vessel of knowledge, extremely helpful and accommodating. The class was well structured and I can’t wait to continue learning on my next visit. Awesome experience!!!”
“Excellent welding instruction by Jason. Instruction and practice was done in a fully outfitted welding workshop. First class training in a first class facility.
Incredible value.”
“Jason runs a great class. I took the week-long course and we covered all three welding processes in a small group setting, which means you actually get real attention and instruction instead of just watching someone else weld all day. There’s a solid balance between discussion and hands-on time, so you leave with reps under your belt and not just theory.
If you want to get up to speed on making decent welds without wasting months fumbling around on your own, this is the move. The value for the price is hard to beat.
I brought my my own helmet and gloves, but it was completely unnecessary — his helmets were clean and the gloves were brand new. Honestly, just show up in boots and jeans and he takes care of everything else. The machines were all multi-process, well-maintained, and worked flawlessly the entire week. No malfunctions, no fumbling with finicky equipment. You just sit down and weld. I’d take another class from Jason without hesitation.”
“Took the comprehensive 1 week class. I wanted to try all welding processes because I had zero experience welding. Glad I took the week long class to narrow down what type of welding I would be mostly using. The small class is amazing, you get all the time you need with the teacher. Jason was amazing and he takes the time to answer any questions you might have. He will even answer questions after you take the class. Awesome experience!!”
