You'll shoot your eye out, kid.
Good Job! Needs some wheels...
I liked the first one better. It had a welder on it.
Nice!
Thanks guys...it's a work in progress. My welding needs much more practice!
Very Nice! :clap:
Cool, I've wanted a mig for a long time. Is there anything more liberating than welding two pieces of metal together?
Cutting two pieces apart with a torch. :wink:Quote:

Wanna build a sim racing cockpit?
It is gas ready, but I don't have a tank yet. I will be putting wheels on it too. Do you have a welder?Quote:

Also dont cheep out on your wire.
This is why almost everyone starts with a welding cart or table. It does not have to be pretty. :)Quote:

I'm considering a folding table. Not as elaborate as this one, but you get the idea.
