So i am new to post but i have been reading the posts for along time! I have been welding tubes for about three years now and enjoy it but i want to be a pipeline hand. I have worked as a helper b4 when i was in school. And with my grandfather which was a pipeliner for 30 years. I have asked him everything that i can think of but he just tells me that i need to get out there!!!!!! I have practiced so d^mn much that i think my face is about to turn blue!!! I was just wondering how it would be takin if i built me a rig and broke out! I am young and i know that alot of people would think that mommy and daddy gave this to me! If a young kid shows up and shuts his mouth and keeps he hood down and works hard can he make? i can weld just haven't ever done it in the ditch!!! anything helps!!!
