    Yeah.... I guess you have to have a lot of experience and practice to get a nice ARC weld.. :eek: I guess ARC would be good for repairs and stuff that doesn't really need to look that nice, but I really don't want globby welds all along the edge of my rimsl! lol
    Cool, man. :cool:

    Hahaha. That would turn into a bigger project cause I would have to figure out where to store somethi.g that small.

    It is a Moab project that will be shown later but integrated into the truck. Shhhh its secret.

    yeah ARC is awesome for structural things because it can power through rust and mil scale no problem. Plus you can weld extremely thick material with it compared to MIG.

    Went for a little drive last night to take pix of the sunset over the mtns. Well I got a few pix of that, but also ran into a bear munching on a left over deer, but by the time I got the camera he was gone, and I was just stuck with some nasty deer pix. LOL

    Here are some of the sunset ones, nothing amazing, but beat just sitting at home.

    I was off duty at 530 this morning and sleeping on a couch. Some douchebag thought it would be appropriate to shake me a awake and ask, "do you know who's cell phone this is?"

    I really think that you should be allowed to kick people in the balls sometimes. Maybe citing the Prudent person laws or something.

    Oh.. and good morning :)
