Damn those are some nice welds! I just bought a huge welding kit from a old dude, gas set up, have everything but tanks, waiting till I get out to cali for those. Going to get a mig when I get there, for what, not yet sure, but always wanted one, so I am sure I will find sumtin. We are talking dune buggies! Not to build one, but to fix what I break!

You will find every reason to weld stff once u get it... Practice practice practice. And remember if your going to be doing a couple hours worth of tacking wear a mask. One day o spent about half the day tack welding and I would just close my eyes then tack and move to the next one. Well the next day my face was burnt like I had been sun tanning all day with no sun screen. My eye lids were puffy and burning.:angry2:.. I definately won't do that again.. haha. Yeah man welding / fabricating is my first love and has now taken second place to tree work.
