Welding trade needs to seriously train welders better, STOP GRINDING. KEEP WELD WHERE IT BELONGS. TRAINING A MUST!!!!

In the past years, I've noticed that the loud vibrating tool I can't stand is the welders #1 tool. REALLY?? Some welders when setting up the pull out 3 or 4 grinders REALLY?? THEY have a zip disc, 1/8 stone disc, 1/4 stone disc, a flap disc and not to mention a die grinder with a carbide. WOW!!! TO ME ITS A WASTE OF TIME. to them its normal. NORMAL?? The whole day all I hear is grinders screeching. NORMAL? ITS DEFINITELY NOT NORMAL!! That tool if used in a welding application means one thing you screwed up. So a rational mind would try to rectify the issue not continue screwing up. You think???? Think of all that time grinding is welding time loss. Not too mention they use more consumables because they weld a rod, then grind half of it out.NORMAL? ITS NOT THERE FAULT ENTIRELY THO. Everyone dose it. Some more then Others, I don't use any abrasives at all. I do use only on stainless a variable speed grinder with a super soft polishing pad and that's to get the darkness out otherwise I wouldn't to one.. Carbon steel, Its been at least 3-4 years since i ground anything. You say ya right. Lol. My method is quite simple, anyone can do it.....Wait.....wait..... Just lay each weld pass properly.Do it the way it's meant to be done, wow..complicated eh? Hahaha. There is more to it but that is the basic fundamentals of it.. Learn to set machine to right parameters, it sounds foolish but, that's what it is. Here's an example - your car just say requires high octane fuel to perform best, if you put it regular. Sure it works but poorly it shakes and sluggish not mention consumption. Same thing as not refining the welding skill by training basic fundamentals and logic. Just by complete understanding of what's really happening during the weld process alone will increase quality and quantity while decreasing the usage of that flippin grinder. my method i use on Everything i weld is foolproof. I've had at least 900-1000 xrays shoot over the past 4-5 years without a single repair or indication and i can pound out at least 3 to 1 over the average welder. LWPS. ITS HIGH PERFORMANCE WELDING and it works. When a welder works with me on a job for a few months. His skill level increases significantly when job is done. Confidence is higher so is his Pride. That's what i offer at NELSONS WELDING. Training in basic understanding in theory and LWPS WELD IMPLEMENTATION, THOSE WHO WANT TO BE GTEAT THRIVE. But you can only lead a horse to water. Please stop grinding. Just weld it. Don't grind it out. NORMAL!!! SHEEESH
