I learned how to gas weld 47 years ago. But for the last 20 or so
years I hardly ever do any gas welding. TIG and MIG rule in my shop.
But just a few minutes ago I needed to weld a nut onto an exhaust stud
and my arc welding leads were too short to reach the backhoe. But my
torch has long hoses. So I gas welded the nut on and the job was easy
and turned out well. The old muscle memory just came back and the weld
is not only strong it also looks good. So I guess I can still cut the
mustard. And even spread it around a little.
