This is what y'all would never see me do.. pretty cool, huh? Mike wanted me to try welding and so, I did. It was scary at first.. LOL. I got the hang of it, so you can see that in my last picture. He works for Lincoln Electric.

(by the way, I hate my profile look.)

Was that a lil Airplane you welded up?
Did'ja get to take your plane Home?
:cool:
Add that to your resume = "Aircraft Assembeler" ;)

Those gloves look a lil "gererous" ...
and the Welders Hood doesn't make much of a fashion statement ...
But you'd prolly be *WELCOME* on a LOTTA welding jobs!

:D

Cool. I like welding. I took a woman's only welding workshop last fall. It was great fun--I didn't miss my calling, but it was fun!

Cool! I would love to learn how to weld. Its an art that takes lots of time and practice.

My dad worked for Lincoln Electric for 35 years, he retired 4 years ago.
He's a master welder too! He bought his first welder when he was 18!
He has tried teaching me several times, but it's one of those things that if you don't do it all the time, you'll never master the art! And an art it is!!!

Great action pictures! Love the welding helmet you have on!

I asked why he didn't wear gloves! He told me he knew what he was doing and he wanted me to be completely protected and not get hurt, and he knows what it feels like, so.. I guess!

I wanna weld again!

This is the airplane I made:
