Hi, and thanks for listening to episode 32 of the Welding Tips and Tricks Podcast. This week we sit down with Ian Johnson know mostly from the TV show Xtreme Off Road. I remember watching Ian years ago while he fabricated awesome off road vehicles wishing to learn how to weld and build some of the rigs he has made. We get to share with our listeners how Ian got started welding and fabricating and some behind the scenes of Xtreme Off Road. One thing that makes Ian unique is he is exposed to all types of fabrication work from sheet metal, tubing and all kinds of equipment.\\xa0So download, pop those earbuds in, hit play, drop your hood, and enjoy! \\xa0
