Newish welder

Just finished a 6 week welding school out in Lincoln Park MI. just south of Detroit put on by UAW-Ford and the WWFS (Wounded Warrior Family Support) They house/fed and trained 10 of us the full 6 weeks and I ended up picking up some AWS certs. I'm into offroad welding Tig/Mig and stick for the trail, mostly self taught until this course. I can lay down a clean bead now but always trying to get better. Don't laugh but welding brought me out of a dark place I enjoy it so much, I helps me forget about all the BS life throws at you, at times while im welding I can almost forget I have leukemia and will do chemo every day. That is what this trade does for me. We all have struggles, don't let life keep you away from layin them beads
