Pictures say it all!







The contractor kit came with everything for stick and tig. Even a dandy little case to keep it all nice and neat. Not a bad deal, paid 3300 and retail was over 4000.

Now I just got to learn how to use it!

LMAO. Paging Josh to the white courtesy phone!

Neat set up, Terry. Make sure, when you pick up your tanks for the gas, you clean up the tank and airbrush some flames on it so it looks cool in your expansive garage man cave. :thumbsup

Nice! Learning to weld is my next venture. I want to customize my exhaust, but I don't have a clue where to start. My uncle-in-law has built a few 33 fords, henry J with a blown hemi, and a 65 mustang. He said I can practice heli-arc (sp?) on an old header I have.

this will give us something nice to look at

3g position mild steel, pretty undercut but it isn't structural
