| About the Author |
| Hal Cleveland Wilson, Flyco
Machine Company President and author of Welding Secrets passed away on October
6, 1997. He was 86. The last years of his life were dedicated to preventing
accidents and saving lives by sharing knowledge with others. From his vast
experience as a welder, Hal wrote a book called Welding Secrets which explained
where NOT to weld. Hal knew that most failures occurred next to the weld, not at
the weld. It troubled him greatly whenever he heard or read about an
airliner going down or some other catastrophe. He sensed correctly somehow that
it was possibly caused by a faulty weld. He always wanted to know how he could
get a copy of Welding Secrets to the investigators of the accident so they would
know what to look for. To date, many thousands of copies of Welding Secrets have
been sold. And countless lives are being saved every year because of Hal's
insightful accomplishment of putting his knowledge on paper. |

No Other
Book Will Prevent More Welding Accidents!

Have
you ever seen a book that tells you where NOT to weld? This one does.
"Welding Secrets" was written by a welder with 49 years experience. Amazing
facts explained in simple terms with 75 photographs and 10 sketches.
|
| "Welding
Secrets" explains why a weld bead shrinks more where it stops than it does where
it starts. Also... amazing pictures of test welds to show the difference between
"free expansion" and "confined expansion". If you have never seen this, you need
this book! |
|
If you believe that the stresses caused by welding do not harm the workpiece,
you are right - except when the weld is made under confined expansion.

| Lack
of knowledge is no defense in a court of law. Surely you have read
about the law suits caused by the breast implants and asbestos. Research
has proven that a weld in the wrong place will cause a break. Not in
the weld, but adjoining the weld.
Breaks cause accidents which kill
people. If you weld something and it breaks and causes injury or damage...
you can be SUED. You could lose everything you own. Learn about the places
that should NOT be welded. |

| "For years I've been trying to
think of a way to warn the public of a hazard that threatens their lives.
The deaths of ten people in Chicago, caused by a faulty weld, has prompted me to
write.
We have heard of trailers breaking loose from
cars, catwalks falling, construction accidents, bridges falling, and airplane
crashes.
Has anyone ever thought that perhaps the welders
did not know where NOT to weld?
Do the inspectors and engineers know where not to
weld?
I am 80 years old, a grammar school drop-out, and
have been welding since 1936. If I had been educated I probably would have
turned up my nose at welding.
Have you ever known a college graduate taking a
job as a welder?
In my opinion, welding has been grossly neglected
by the educators." Hal Wilson - Author |
