Daniel Brown trained as a welder with Fabricated Products through an Advanced Apprenticeship. The Rotherham-based company makes steel equipment for the heating and ventilation and water treatment industries throughout the UK, Europe, Scandinavia, and the Middle East – and as far as Australia. Dan has learnt different types of welding but mostly uses MIG (metal inert gas) welding where a wire electrode and a shielding gas are fed through a welding gun to join pieces of metal. He gets involved in everything from selecting and preparing the right materials for the job to welding the parts together to make the finished product.
