Frequently asked questions about learning to weld
Is it an e-book or a video program?
It is a digital e-book in PDF, 68 pages long. You read it on your phone, tablet or computer, and the file is yours to keep. There are no videos and no live sessions.
How do I get it after I pay?
Hotmart sends the access link to your email as soon as the payment is confirmed. Some payment methods confirm faster than others, so if you do not see the email right away, check your spam or promotions folder.
What payment methods can I use?
Payment is processed securely by Hotmart. The payment methods available for your country appear at checkout. The price is in US dollars, and the final amount is shown before you pay.
Why pay $12.90 when there is so much free information online?
Because here it is all organized, from the first arc to the shop floor: 68 pages, 23 reference tables and 25 technical figures. Instead of piecing together scattered videos, you look up the right table at the bench whenever you need it. And you have 14 days to ask for your money back if it is not for you.
Can I learn to weld on my own, at home?
You can learn the technical base: setting the machine, preparing the joint, reading the bead and working safely. Hand skill only comes with practice, and the e-book is built to guide that practice. It does not replace hands-on training. If your goal is to work in industry, pair the reading with supervised, in-person training.
My machine runs on 120 V. Does the e-book cover that?
Yes. The home-shop chapter explains how to read the machine nameplate (input voltage, input current, duty cycle), why the outlet, wiring and breaker must match it, and why long or thin extension cords are a problem. If a breaker keeps tripping, the advice is to call a licensed electrician, never to improvise.
Which process is easiest for a beginner?
For most people, MIG: the wire feeds by itself and you only control the gun. Stick welding uses the simplest machine and works well outdoors. TIG is the most demanding. The e-book shows when to use each one.
What is inside, chapter by chapter?
An introduction, 17 chapters and a conclusion: welding basics, PPE, stick, MIG/MAG, TIG, flux-cored, submerged arc, oxyacetylene, resistance welding, brazing and soldering, basic metallurgy, defects, inspection, codes and standards (AWS, ASME, ISO), welding safety, welding at home, and where welders work.
Are sizes in inches or millimeters?
Both. Imperial comes first and metric follows in parentheses, for example 1/8 in (3.2 mm) or 250 °F (120 °C). Electrical values are simply amps and volts. Filler metals use the US designations, such as E6013, E7018 and ER70S-6.
What if I do not like it?
You have 14 days to ask for a full refund, no reason needed. You make the request through Hotmart or by emailing our support address.
Does this guarantee a job?
No. The e-book gives you the technical base to learn. It is not a promise of a job, a qualification or any particular result: what you get out of it depends on your practice, your training and your situation.
