    Either way, working for yourself in a trade is king. Biggest check I got was a 20 comma. Knocked out 6 groundworks with water and sewer connections in a week. Dead tired at the end but nothing like setting your price and keeping profit.

    Im a maintenance technician at a steel manufacturing plant. All Im gonna say, I have to fix a lot of stuff for weldors. Their machines, their grinders, their over head cranes. For all they claim to fix, they sure do break a lot of stuff. How much stuff do you break Rodger?

    Welding is not a trade it is a skill set. Plumbers, Pipefitters, Iron workers, Sheetmetal, Boilermakers ext. all utilize welding in different applications of their trade and can and do become certified welders. But they are a tradesman first and then become certified welders. Welding is not a trade it is a skill within a trade..

  • @lorenzomartin1019

    Carpenters. Widest scope of work (we weld too). Builds the backbone of all our infrastructure. Second most employed trade (laborers are #1). Ask yourself, would you rather have a running water or a home. If you choose running water whats it running to? Case closed. In all seriousness, it is incredible to think how all the trades come together to accommodate all our needs. At the end of the day its all necessary, its all hard work. And how effectively those needs are met and how productive that hard work is comes down to how well the different trades can work together.

    Plumbers do welding every day. PVC pipes are welded, not glued.

    • @brrrayday
      @brrrayday 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@RogerWakefield I could be mistaken, but it's my understanding that PVC cement, when used with a primer chemically welds the pipe and hub together. This is why primer is so important, because it softens the surfaces to accept the molecular bonding, much in the same way as heat during a weld. The end result is a single bonded polymer, just as two pieces of steel when welded become one
      But, eh, I could be wrong

    30 years in the trade many of them plumbing high rise hotels and casinos in Las Vegas, along with residential, light commercial and industrial, if it needs plumbing I have plumbed it, with that being said I will never claim that I know it all, remember there's always new tech coming , so keep an open mind and keep up with the times, One more thing TEACH the apprentices, teach them not only the application process but explain to them the reason its done that way or why it has to be done a certain way, one thing I have seen that has become a common practice is a person is shown how to do one aspect of the entire trade IE how to run gas piping or waste and vent if your a beginner dont let this happen to you , insist on learning all aspects of the trade.
