EP 117: The Realities of Being A Rig Welder with Hunter Wilson

In this week’s episode, Beau chats with Hunter Wilson aka @texaspipeliner35 or Professor Wilson about the realities of being a rig welder. When getting into the trade a lot of people set their sights on becoming a rig welder, and he gives us a first-hand perspective of what it is like to run your own rig. He talks about costs from consumables to tires for his truck, gives some examples of how he gets paid, and talks about being responsible with that money. If you are interested in becoming a rig welder you won’t want to miss this one.
