Today's guest is Scott Raabe, owner and operator of Precision Welding Academy in Katy, Texas. Scott is a welder turned educator. After teaching at 2 different schools, Scott realized there's got to be a better way to teach welding education. So he started his own school from the ground up. And Scott's grown the right way, slow and steady, he takes what's working and improves it, he evaluates what's not working and eliminates it. He's also not expanding for the sake of profits, he expands when the time is right while maintaining a 10 student to 1 instructor ratio. He's grown his school by leaps and bounds and in this episode we discuss how he did it.

Today's guest is Danny Keiderling, a rig welder out of the Wyoming area. I first got introduced to Danny via Instagram and TikTok, he does some great how to videos, and has some handy tips and tricks when it comes to welding, and he's always a super positive guy and genuinely cares about the skilled trade of welding. Danny was recently involved in an accident that has left him as a quadriplegic, but Danny didn't let that stop him. He's now trying to teach himself to weld once again and make a full recovery. He's already made significant progress with his physical therapy. Throughout his injury and therapy Danny has kept his positive attitude and continues to push himself a little more each day. He's one hell of an inspiration to many and I wanted to get him on the show to share his story and motivation with you all.

| 329. Send It w/ Jim Belosic | 17 Jun 2024 | 01:26:34 | |
Joining me today is Jim Belosic, CEO and Founder of Send Cut Send. Jim has an incredible story of how he built a unique company to perform a very necessary service for home hobbyists, Makers, custom fabricators and small to large business owners. During the day Jim would work designing various types of websites and software programs and would work on building crazy custom cars in his off hours. He built many of the custom fabricated parts himself and one day incorporated a CNC plasma cutter to increase speed and accuracy of the parts he needed. Jim realized he could'nt be the only one in his area that needed custom parts made so he started to fill machine down time with custom orders and thus send cut send was born.

| 244. Building a Solid Foundation to Financial Freedom w/ Richard Roybal | 26 Sep 2022 | 01:36:05 | |
In this episode I'm talking Financial Management, as welders we have the potential to make some serious money, but we really don't get taught how to manage that money. I've seen on several occasions, a welder gets done with school, gets a high paying job and then starts pissing all that money away. Don't get me wrong, it's you're money do what you want with it. But I know that I'd like to live debt free and have a nice nest egg once I retire and also take care of my family in the instance that god forbid something happens to me on the job or before retirement. That's why I asked Richard Roybal to come on the show and give us some guidance on how to become financially independent . I know it's not the typical welding topic you all are accustomed to but it's still relevant to this career so I figured it would make for a good topic for the audience. There's even some great info for those of you that have already started your own business, or are thinking about going into business for yourself.

While I was at the Welding Summit I met some pretty cool people, one of them, was a welding engineer, and I know what you're thinking welders and Engineers don't typically get along but Paisley Natalia isn't your typical Welding Engineer. She likes to get in the shop and work side by side with the welders that are making the repairs. She doesn't try to do her job from behind a desk, she goes right to where the work is to solve the problems and get a better understanding of how and why things work to solve in-service issues.

In todays episode, I am chatting with Mark Wilson about a subject I've always wanted to learn more about and that is hardfacing. I'M sure you all have seen the crazy ornate weld patterns on bull dozer blades, loader buckets, dredge shovels and excavator teeth. Well, the welds are just more than something cool to look at. They're put on to prevent wear and tear on the attachment. But there's a certain way these welds need to be put on and there's certain electrode that should be used based on the type of wear the equipment will encounter. Today Mark shares his experience and knowledge about all things hardfacing.
