welding 3d printing ...It seems more like a game ... when I was a teenager during the summer job I did the welder ... it was fun to do this kind of game ... obviously we never did a bridge ... otherwise the Boss would find out!! ... I see it hard to do any kind of control that is not damaged by sparks and fumes ... maybe the most futuristic thing is to use the gas of the welding machine itself ... but this would eliminate the sparks only at the cost of a disuse of gas. .. and the finishes would remain questionable.
