I want to learn to weld very badly. Why, if I could weld, I'd weld in the morning, I'd weld in the evening. Let's just say I have a lot of welding needed done.

Me too. I enjoyed the potential for artful work, and the vistas that could open up for me as far as re-doing the aluminum foil/rtv patches I have on my bus.Sylvester wrote:Nope, just freaky! I do say if I could weld and owned a welder, I'd be a welding fool for sure.
If you pass by here later this year and can spend a day, I'll get you all set up with stuff you need ...we'll go to Northern and/or Harbor Freight so you can buy your new tools...and then a solid day's practice on scrap metal. I'm serious. I would love it.Amskeptic wrote:Me too.

I'll buy the scrap metal and welding rod and patch right there in your driveway. If I only need a welder once every thirty years I don't know that I'd want to buy one outright. I will not buy a car that needs welding, except of course, for this first one here that I loved regardless of its problems.Hippie wrote:If you pass by here later this year and can spend a day, I'll get you all set up with stuff you need ...we'll go to Northern and/or Harbor Freight so you can buy your new tools...and then a solid day's practice on scrap metal.
