| Mig Welding | Metal inert gas aka GMAW, is when the filler and the electrode are the same material the filler wire is fed thru a mig gun where it is shielded by a gas and the wire itself produces the arc and also becomes the filler metal. |
| Tig Welding | WIth TIG, GTAW, welding a tungsten electrode shielded by a gas (usually argon) generates the heat that produces the weld puddle. If filler metal is used, it is added separately either by hand or by a mechanized feeder. |
| Stick Welding | WIth stick welding a tungsten electrode generates the heat that produces the weld puddle. If filler metal is used, it is added separately either by hand or by a mechanized feeder. |
| Laser Welding | Shoot laser at metal. Deeper and less heat effected zone. Good for automated practices. |
| Oribital | TIG welding automated in a circle in order to account for surface tension and gravity |

| Butt Joint (Weld) | This joint type joins two workpieces in the same plane with their edges meeting or with a root opening lying parallel to one another. Use butt joints to join plate, pipe, tubing or any other application where a smooth, flush weld face is desired. |
| Corner Joint (Weld) | When pieces are joined at 90 degrees and take the shape of an L. These joints are easy to assemble and require little, if any, edge preparation. Corner joints are often used for projects that require a square frame, such as fabricating a weld table. |
| Open vs Closed Corner Joint | Open: Best for strength as the stress goes through the material more efficiently Closed: Best for thin materials under low stresses to avoid burnthourgh |
| Lap Joint | Overlapping plates welded together |
| Choosing between Lap and Butt Joint | Butt joint will result in a more flush contour, leaving the workpieces in the same plane. Lap joints can provide more strength in higher-stressed areas, but the joints are more noticeable and do not result in a flush contour. |
| T-Joint | The edges of your two workpieces meet at approximately 90 degrees and take the shape of a T. T-joints possess good mechanical strength, especially when welded from both sides. |
