Ya, she took the kids to the mall and I brought home a portable snorkel from work, once again, nice to have these to borrow from work. When we were done you would have never noticed we were burning down stairs. And ya, TIG is so the way to go, nice and neat.

Ya, suitcase welder, pretty sweet little boxes. Nice part is it plugs into a 110v outlet.
I think the stand kicks ass too, it's solid as a rock and dead level. Might be a bit overkill, but what the hell, doesn't cost me any extra to beef it up a little. God I love steel.

That is deffinately a plus, I can build a whole setup in the shop then move it in piece by piece.

Awesome work dude I will be watching this one for sure. Isn't it funny how when you are building everything yourself you tend to go overkill. I know i did with my stand as well.

Tank is looking good for a start.




I also noticed you pay in beer. Call me. I work for beer. Ha ha!

But seriously, if you need any help Bob, let me know.

I wonder... does anyone care enough to read signatures if you make them really small? I would not. I would probably moan and complain, read three words and swear once or twice. But since you made it this far, please rate my builds.
