Want this question answered?
Uphand welding is welding with the electrode pointing upwards, above the hand.
All depends if you are right handed or left handed.
back hand welding is when you pull the welding rod or whatever it is that you are using and forehand is when you push it ahead
Use a chainsaw or welding torch.
MY question is (WHAT IS DOWNHILL WELDING) The correct term is Down Hand Welding. Most welds in the vertical position are made from bottom to top. Down Hand means welding from the top to bottom. These welds are usually made on thin metal as the heat input is lower, thereby reducing penetration/burn thru.
Use a chainsaw or welding torch.
Often because with DC, it is possible to change the direction of the weld current for the task at hand.
A welding chipping hammer is a hand held tool, like yourself. It is used for removing slag after the SMAW or flux core process.
Good eyesight (can be corrected w/prescription glasses), a steady hand, excellent eye - hand coordination.
Safety awareness, Welding helmet, gloves, welding jacket, welders hat, chipping hammer, safety glasses, heavy pants, leather shoes, hand grinder, and a wire brush.
nothing really
Men and women did the welding. In the U.S. women were trained to use the TIG (heliarc) process as they were thought to have a steadier hand. In ship building there were more women welding then men as a big percentage of men were in the service.
