== MIG Welder induction - Level 2 ==
Level 2 induction should cover more advanced uses, there will be a charge for level-2 induction to cover the increased cost of materials and trainer time associated with these more complex uses.
 
=== Main level 2 induction ===
* Going into Manual mode on the welder and suitable settings to use
Line 245 ⟶ 246:
*** Lots of sparks and brown/porous weld - not enough gas or too far away
* Working with thin (1mm) and thick (5mm) materials
* Lap joints of dissimilar thickness and dealing with burn-back issues
* Using tip-dip and anti-spatter spray
* Welding hardening steels
* Welding mild steel in position 3
* PracticingPractising multi-pass welding
* Changing the gas bottle
* Changing wire, torches and liners, proper setting of wire feed and tension
Line 256 ⟶ 259:
* Welding with Aluminium, using suitable gasses. Costs £10 extra
* Welding Stainless Steel, using suitable gasses. Costs £10 extra
* MIG brazing, which allows joining materials with less heat and distortion, and also works on some materials that can't easily be welded like cast iron and tool steels. Costs £30 extra
* Hard-facing, adding a very hard wear-resistant surface coating to materials using the welder. Costs £30 extra
