EP 202: Side Gigs & Welding Wisdom with Guy Seguin

In this episode, host Beau Wigington speaks with Guy Seguin, a welding educator at Algonquin College in Ottawa, Ontario, and creator behind Sewing with Fire Welding. Guy shares practical insights into side gigs welders can pursue, common projects to tackle for extra income, and essential considerations for successful side jobs.

Key Topics Covered:

• Most common side gigs welders encounter

• Essential tools and skills for successful welding side jobs

• Avoiding costly mistakes on projects

• Pricing jobs effectively and setting appropriate rates

• Liability concerns and how to manage risk in welding side projects

Memorable Quotes:

• "Any transferable skill is valuable. If you've got laboring experience or anything that can transfer over to welding, apply that first."

• "Start slow, acquire tools, and build your skills and reputation steadily—slow and steady wins the race."
