While it may feel like the dead of winter out there right now, the recent warm spells (and Mr. Punxsutawney Phil … ), have us dreaming of those beautiful summer days. The days where you sit outside on your patio, enjoying the beauty of nature, eating delicious food, and hanging out with fun friends and family. You may have never thought about it, but welding plays a HUGE role in your outdoor enjoyment and experiences! We’re going to take a look at some of the outdoor items you already have that are possibly welded, and then start thinking about projects that you may want to get done before summer gets here! Welded Furniture Chances are that many of your outdoor space furniture is welded! While there are some other materials like plastic, wood, or even recycled milk cartons (also plastic), that are being turned into lawn furniture, you still can’t go wrong with good old fashioned metal. Whole outdoor furniture sets can be made from metal, and often are. It’s durable against the...

Welding Equipment is Expensive. Chances are, you probably don't have welding equipment lying around in your garage or backyard shed.  Welding equipment is expensive to buy and can vary depending on the type of project you're working on.  Buying a welding machine for a single project would not be cost-effective and it would be a waste of time if you don't already have the necessary welding skills.  Renting a welding machine can also be expensive, and the quality of work will not be as good as that of an expert welder and may need repairs down ...

Attention to detail and careful installation is rare around here but they've got it. Also were very good to keep cost low and work with us to stay within budget. They are super easy to work with. Very nice people. Enjoyed visiting the welding shop to see the railing being created. Turned out just like we wanted and better than I imagined! So glad to be able to give such nice people 5 stars. Thanks, Augello's!!"       ...

One of the most controversial debates in structural engineering is the bolted joint versus the welded joint.  Welding is the practice of joining two pieces of material by heating the surfaces to their melting point and hammering and pressing them together so that the two pieces become one. Augello's Welding and Fabrication is your expert in welding and custom fabrication at the Lake of the Ozarks .  Obviously, we are little biased toward the welded joint.  Here's why. 1. Welding creates a permanent joint.  Heating up the material to its melting point actually causes the atoms in the metal to join.  This chemical joining causes the two separate pieces to permanently become one and the structure will, therefore, act as one piece. 2. Welded joints are stronger.  Because welding chemically joins the atoms in the materials being joined, the welded joint has the strength of the parent metal itself. Other forms of joining can result in joints that are stru...

Welcome to the new Augello’s Welding and Fabrication blog !  Every week we will keep you up to date on everything happening in our business, some of our coolest custom projects, and some information on welding basics.  This blog is the place to go for all things welding and fabrication at the Lake of the Ozarks .  But first, we’d like to introduce ourselves. What is Welding? Welding is the process of joining together metal pieces or parts by my melting them together.  This process is achieved by heating the metals with a blowtorch, electric arc, or other tools and joining the pieces together by pressing or hammering them.  Welding is the most efficient way to join metals permanently, and it is the only way to join metals to make them act as a single piece.  Welding is a very important part of our economy as it is a major process in any type of manufacturing.  Compared to other industrial processes, welding requires much more science and many more...
