Miller Announces 5th Annual Welding Challenge

… A challange has been issued… for the world’s best welders.

At the Miller Electrig Mfg. Co’s 5th annual Welding Project Challenge, the industry’s most accomplished welders will be honored with a test of competition. Contestants will submit a project in one of the three categories — easy, moderate or difficult. Judges will select two finalists from each category based on the project’s creativity, quality of presentation and craftsmanship. Each finalist wins an ArcStation 30SX welding workbench, an Arc Armor Welding Protection Package and an all-expense-paid trip to Miller’s headquarters in Appleton, Wis.   

Finalists will receive a tour of Miller’s headquarters and compete head-to-head to build a project, selected by Miller, within a set time period. Miller will supply all materials and tools for the Welding Showdown. 

The grand prize winner in each category wins their choice of a Millermatic 211 Auto-Set with MVP MIG welder with a Spoolmate 100 spool gun, a Diversion 180 TIG welding package or a Spectrum 375 X-TREME plasma cutter. Entries are due by August 10, 2010. For information on contest rules and how to enter, visit the Miller Showdown website.
