Today’s blog will be a short one, because I’ve been so busy working on several awesome projects that time is limited.\u00a0 As those of you who have read this blog for any length of time know, I am the Founder and President of Arc-Zone.com.\u00a0 When I’m not blogging on Joe Welder about welding, motorsports, cycling or other things that interest me, I run our welding supply company.\u00a0 Here’s some of the cool stuff happening at the Zone, and the reasons why it’s good to be Joe Welder:<\/p>\n

Reason 1: Miller just delivered a bunch of new toys\"\"<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/strong>I’ve been working on a special program with our friends at Miller for some time, and today it finally feels real.\u00a0 Miller dropped off a Millermatic 211<\/a> MIG welder, a Dynasty 200<\/a> TIG welder, a Diversion 180<\/a> TIG welder, a Spectrum 625 XTREME<\/a> Plasma Cutter, and some cool accessories like a wireless foot control<\/a> for us to play with.\u00a0 I can’t tell you what it’s for yet, but I can say that we’re working on a way to get you more free education and better information to make sure you have what you need to do the job right the first time.<\/p>\n

Reason 2: The contractor and designer were here working on our new spaces<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/strong>Arc-Zone HQ is expanding, and part of that expansion are two spaces that I’ve been dreaming about for some time.\u00a0 We’ll announce more in the coming months, but what we’re working on is totally unique, and will transform Arc-Zone.com<\/a> from just an online weld-shop to a real-world destination and hangout for welders.<\/p>\n

Reason 3: We’re hiring<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/strong>The American economy is slowly recovering, and thanks to our great customers, the Arc-Zone business is expanding.\u00a0 We’re combing Southern California for customer service reps and warehouse staff to meet the demands of our ever-growing customer base.\u00a0 We’ll profile a couple of the new additions on the blogs very soon.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Thanks to our Arc-Zone.com customers and readers of the Joe Welder and Carmen Electrode blogs (that means you!), I get to watch the big vision that started with our opening in 1998 come to fruition.\u00a0 We’ll soon be back to our regularly scheduled programming.\u00a0 Until then, weld on!
