Professor Jeffus has served for 12 years as a board member on the Texas Workforce Investment Council in the Texas Governor's office where he works to develop a skilled workforce and bring economic development to the state. He is a Life Member of the American Welding Society. Prior to retiring from teaching, Professor Jeffus taught at Eastfield College, part of the Dallas County Community College District. Larry Jeffus holds a Bachelor of Science Degree and
Since retiring from full-time teaching, he remains very active in the welding community, especially in the field of education. About the Author Larry Jeffus is a welder with over 55 years of welding experience, and he has his own well-equipped welding shop. He served as a member of the Apprenticeship Project Leadership Team where he helped establish apprenticeship training programs for Texas, and he has made numerous trips to Washington lobbying for vocational and technical education. He serves on several welding program technical advisory committees and has visited high school, college, and technical campuses in more than forty states and four foreign count
The Best Welding Textbook There Is I borrowed this textbook through a system that allows people to borrow books from almost any library in Michigan. On top of that, I borrowed a number of other welding textbooks. I did this because I was taking a welding class and didn't have the money to buy the textbook our class prescribed (Welding by David J. Hoffman, Kevin R. Dahle and David J. Fisher, 2011). I was able to get the Hoffman book my class prescribed via a library eventually, but it is nowhere near as good as this textbook--Welding and Fabrication by Jeffus. In fact, I recommended it to my welding teacher and she said that was the book they p. Five Star Plus! Worth every cent. Advanced training and info. Must have for anyone wanting proper info. It will not substitute for hands on training but will put you ahead of the power curve in every way. Great in depth info on any process you care to brush up on, learn about before purchasing equipment, etc. Extremely well written, illustrations and pics first class. Five star plus!. Far better than most welding books JH685 This book is far better than most basic books. It covers far more detail, while not delving into some of the mathematics that you might find in the Welding handbook. This is a practical book that reads fast and easy, but is interesting and contains a lot of valuable information and techniques.
Key steps and techniques within the small projects are also linked to larger projects presented at the end of each chapter, enabling you to apply what you have learned by fabricating and welding something more substantial. This full-featured approach to skill-building reflects the reality of professional welding, where following prints and instructions precisely and laying out, cutting out, and assembling weldment accurately are just as essential as high-quality welding. To further enhance the learning process, every welding project includes a set of prints with specifications, like those used in production fabrication shops. This groundbreaki
