Students who can demonstrate their welding and cutting skills in a team fabrication project are invited to enter a contest sponsored by Esab. The theme of the contest is “A Cut Above.” Students are also invited to submit a 500-word essay that conveys the contest theme.

The contest is open to students in welding, cutting and related programs (such as Ag Mechanics) at secondary and post-secondary schools in the United States and Canada (excluding Quebec). The company will award more than $30,000 in equipment and cash prizes as part of the contest.
