View our Grant Assistance Tool Sharing Stories that Matter Behind every welding hood is a person we’d like to get to know. Why? Because the stories shared might inspire someone else to take a chance, try something different and begin a new chapter in their story. Some of us have an unlikely path to becoming a welder — like Michael Brandt, owner of custom fabrication and mobile welding shop Garage Bound, LLC. At the age of 9, Michael had a great mentor who planted the seed for a love of welding. That love would help Michael get through some difficult times and later inspire him to pass on his passion to the next generation.
