I am planning on learning welding to do some reconfiguration of old iron/steel beds. Turning them into benches, etc. So it is basically iron tube to iron tube, 1/2" to 1 1/2" diameter.
I read the welding FAQ but it didn't really answer the questions as to what process was best for each possible application (not surprisingly as this would be a huge undertaking).
I will be taking a course a the local community college, but their courses are split based on process type. So you have to know the best type before hand.
So, I would appreciate if someone could let me know whether torch or arc welding would be best for this applicaion
The two possible first courses are:
Oxy-Acetylene Arc (SMAW)
Thanks,
