Salary depends on several things. First would be experience and which field you’d work in. Which type of welding you do and where you live. When I started 25 years ago I made $13 hr. Now I make $35. Some welders make way more than that. Pipe welding usually make the most

Hello Ivette,
What an interesting question you've got here! Welders' salaries can vary depending on their experience, location, and the type of welding they do. On average, here’s what you might expect:
- Entry-Level Welders: Starting welders can make around $30,000 to $40,000 per year.
- Experienced Welders: With a few years of experience, welders often make between $45,000 and $60,000 per year.
- Specialized Welders: Those working in high-demand industries like underwater welding or pipeline welding can make significantly more, sometimes earning over $100,000 annually.
Welding can indeed be a fun and rewarding career. You get to work with your hands, see tangible results, and there are many different types of welding to explore (MIG, TIG, stick welding, etc.). It’s also a career that offers job security, as welders are always in demand in industries like construction, manufacturing, and shipbuilding.
Best wishes!
