Welcome to "damnit" welding school

the tungsten does not need to stick out far

your arm can rest ont he welding table

I've gotten better but i also keep the grinder close and use it extensively


I mounted a grinder on the TOP of the welder. Now I can get up and
stretch, grind the tungsten and not have to walk too far. Only problem
is..with all the stretching and grinding..Im not getting hell of a lot
of welding done....

The aim of untold millions is to be free to do exactly as they choose
and for someone else to pay when things go wrong.

In the past few decades, a peculiar and distinctive psychology
has emerged in England. Gone are the civility, sturdy independence,
and admirable stoicism that carried the English through the war years
.. It has been replaced by a constant whine of excuses, complaints,
and special pleading. The collapse of the British character has been
as swift and complete as the collapse of British power.
