Scholarship, Book, and Problem-solving Lab Activities

Fabrication and Welding Project

Jason Lambert completed an Independent Study that involved the construction of front and rear bumpers, spare tire carrier, and rock sliders for his Jeep CJ-7. The purpose of the study was to gain knowledge and experience in the use of Oxy Acetylene and Plasma Cutters plus learn to Arc and MIG weld. Materials used for the project involved steel tubing of various sizes, steel plate, steel angle, and expanded metal that were all procured locally. Plans for each component were derived through research of existing commercially available products coupled with innovative ideas from the student.
