Review: Great book on Welding - This book is a required textbook for a welding class I'm taking, but it's not written like a traditional textbook. The writing isn't full of technical jargon and it's written like you're having a conversation with the older guy at work that has learned over the years and is passing down that information. The book covers a wide range of subjects like all of the arc welding processes and even includes gas welding, safety, oxy-fuel cutting and even some interesting history about welding. I've read most of the book before my classes started and it gives me a lot more confidence than just going into class blind. Each welding process chapter gives a detailed description of why you would or wouldn't use the process, the common beginner mistakes, how to weld in each position, and even gives exercises you could do on your own if you just bought this book to learn on your own. Review: Be a Welder! - I you want to KNOW the principles of metals and welding, this book written by Mr. Todd Bridigum will enlighten ANYONE beginner or professional welder. A short story; got injured two jobs ago. Sought something more exciting to do. Didn't have the funds to go to an accredited school so what did I do? Went to Goodwill to see about training. The very first thing I chose to be trained in was WELDING! I have welders on both sides of my family including my grandfather born and raised in Montgomery, Ala. Needless to say, I was just a number to them. After going through all of that paperwork, NOTHING! They just waisted my time. Fast forwarding to NOW, Mr. Bridigum MASTERFULLY wrote this book to open your mind to the very idea of metal fabrication and how YOU can do it with ease. I've been in and out of this book discovering so many details and knowledge about welding. My neighborhood library is sick of me taking THAT MUCH TIME in the same seat reading this book! How do you not become excited with this publication? Do you want to be a welder and an accomplished one? GET THIS BOOK!! You won't be disappointed and send Mr. Bridigum an email of thanks once you complete this valuable training to get you going. Go get your "puddle" on! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #103,229 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #7 in Metallurgy Materials Engineering #9 in Welding #154 in Do-It-Yourself Home Improvement (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 755 Reviews | ## Images ![How To Weld (Motorbooks Workshop) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91G2tKjzuzL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great book on Welding *by R***S on August 29, 2025* This book is a required textbook for a welding class I'm taking, but it's not written like a traditional textbook.

I started by buying a bunch of welding books and reviewing the more modern techniques and equipment. This book is one of the ones that I have found to be well worth the trouble. The book is well written, complete and concise. The images are extremely well-done and seemingly on-point. The book covers all of the conventional welding disciplines...SMAW (stick welding..), GMAW (MIG welding..), GTAW (TIG welding..), and FCAW ((flux-core..) as it relates to MIG..). Note that for an journeyman, or competent welder, some of this information may seem to be a little basic. But, that is the way it is intended. It is a journey through the welding disciplines describing the techniques, the similarities and differences, and the best practices for each. In particular, I found the sections on TIG and MIG to be particularly helpful. The section on basic arc stick welding was a good review, but since little has changed in the preceeding 20 or 30 years it was just a little redundant to me. If you are completely new to welding, or new to the current technology as embodied by modern equipment, this book will really start you off on the right path. This book along with one other, Farm and Workshop Welding: Everything You Need to Know to Weld, Cut, and Shape Metal would make up a great core for learning the necessary subject matter for welding with today's technology. Both of these books are extremely well written and edited. The images are very good and meaningful with respect to the information as it is being presented. This book has a useful index (although it is somewhat limited..), and a small topical section on "Resources" which I found useful as well. If you are interested in learning about welding, you can't go far wrong with this book. I recommend it for everyone other than an experienced journeyman. I am glad that I purchased this one and Farm and Workshop Welding: Everything You Need to Know to Weld, Cut, and Shape Metal as well. It's not perfect, but almost!! Four stars for an almost indispensable reference. ## Frequently Bought Together - How To Weld (Motorbooks Workshop) - Farm and Workshop Welding, Third Revised Edition: Everything You Need to Know to Weld, Cut, and Shape Metal (Fox Chapel Publishing) Learn and Avoid Common Mistakes with Over 400 Step-by-Step Photos - Welding Symbols Quick Card (English only) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.eg/products/211801-how-to-weld-motorbooks-workshop](https://www.desertcart.com.eg/products/211801-how-to-weld-motorbooks-workshop) --- *Product available on Desertcart Egypt* *Store origin: EG* *Last updated: 2026-07-06*
