Welding certainly is fascinating. So many scientific principles applied in the welding process, and it’s such a common thing; so many pieces of apparatus around us have been welded, but most people don’t even know how it works.
So anyway, check out the next episode of my amazing Me-Straw show, Stuff What Works, where I tell you ALL about it! It’s gonna be wild!
That’s a terrible catch phrase, I know. I’m only on episode three, and I’m desperately trying to stand out from all the zany science shows that are already there. I’ve covered making stain glass, the possibility of teleportation technology in our lifetime and now I’m moving onto the fascinating process of welding. Normal welding, underwater welding, welding in space, marine welding! Melbourne has a great industry for the latter of those, so I’m thinking of making that a focal point. I can actually go down to the docks and get some footage of it happening, plus interviews, if I’m very fortunate and maybe polite. Polite when off-camera, that is. On-camera I’m a live-wire of knowledge and enthusiasm about our natural world, because you’ve got to build a showbiz persona and that’s the one that seems to test better with Me-Straw audiences.
“Hey, what’s up guys! It’s ME, INSERT NAME HERE, and today we’ve got a VERY special episode on…wait for it…WELDING!!!”
Eh…it’ll come together, probably. I just need to gather some hot facts about the Melbourne stainless steel marine welding industry. People really do love them some hot facts, as well as information that they can use in the future. Like…how to weld your very own plate alloy boats!
Too high-skill? Yep, probably. I’ll think of something.
