Nate Bowman and Kyle Worzala join Dan Davis and Josh Welton to talk about 3M Clash of the Grinders, a student-based competition sponsored by 3M that teaches proper grinding techniques and safety. It features 12 contestants who receive hands-on training from industry experts.

Bowman, known as the Weld Scientist, hosted Season 2, and Worzala, a welding instructor at Gateway Technical College in Kenosha, Wis., served as one of three judges.

They look behind the scenes and talk about how the competition aimed to teach contestants the importance of proper abrasive selection, tool angle, and pressure control when grinding.

The guys also talk about learning from mistakes, the power of a trade school education, and the Power Rangers.

This episode was recorded at FABTECH 2024 in Orlando, Fla.
