In this episode, Jason talks with Gavin Young from Baer Welding in Providence, Utah. Gavin shares his journey from sweeping floors at age 12 to working on high-end custom fabrication projects around the world. They discuss Baer’s evolution from a garage shop to a precision-driven ornamental welding company, their work on the massive Temple Square project, and how they train new hires with real-world testing and mentorship. Gavin talks about the balance of shop and field work, why TIG is king for quality, and how today’s young welders can set themselves up for success in the trade.
