When Willie’s Jeep twists an axle in the middle of a desert ravine, the right gear becomes a literal lifesaver. He and Kevin welcome Kris Scherm from ESAB to recount a "clutch" trailside repair using a battery-powered portable welder. From there, the conversation expands to include "plasma gouging" and the massive technological leap that has occurred in metal fusion since 2020; exploring the science of Pulse Stick welding; the 'one-knob' simplicity of modern Rogue MiG systems; and the productivity gains of moving from stick to high-speed wire. From toaster-sized pocket welders to waveform electronics that make beginners weld like pros, listen in and learn how the perfect welder for your garage or shop is more attainable than you think.
