i've been welding for 22 years, mig tig arc gas and brazing, these days i shake too much for a tidy mig weld, as i've not picked one up for 10 years it'd be interesting to see how messy i am now :(

i hope to buy a mig as soon as we get home, and maybe when funds/wife allow a small ac/dc tig, i'm going to have to be a very good boy for that one ;)
