    Only thing I know is a guy should buy a couple new tshirts now and then.

    Most of this work is so tedious, I am really tired of it. I dont mind burning a couple rods or shoot something with a little wire but the constant cutting grinding cleaning I have had plenty and do what I got to do which is what I pretty much did anyway. I do this work cause I need to more than love it. I have enough design talent and some skill and bit of experience gets me by, gets me past any real "qualifications" or real education and real math.
    All that is more important as real ambition goes south, its a regret at 60 it wasnt at 40 and didnt matter at 20.

    .....you go out of your way to check and see how your 17 year old welds have faired against the impacts of weather and wear and tear.

    Ya, there’s been some pretty funny ones over the years I’ve been on here.

    Wow.....I started this random thread in 2006. Here we are in 2023 and it still exists. I haven't even logged on to this forum in at least a decade now. I hope this has brought some laughter to folks over the better part of the last 17 years.

    When you can name the project that coincides with each scar it left on your body.

    You can't figure out what that burning hair smell is until someone tells you your beard is on fire

    Really, I never even saw her until a non welder looked at the picture and pointed her out.

    The cute chick in the miniskirt on the other side was just a coincidence, honest!

    Look at the welds shoot, I took pictures of the hand rails during a cruise I went on, so I could show the other welders at work when I got home. My wife said WHAT ARE YOU DOING shook her head and walked away from me.

    Yeah...Wife, so no girlfriend here (at least that's what I tell my wife), but I can't go ANYWHERE without looking at welds...Big truck and trailer beside me at the stop light, the rails in the stairwells anywhere/everywhere I go, the metal chairs in a restaurant.....MAN, I've just GOTTA LOOK! We have one restaurant here in the Reno area that has 1/4" hot roll plate supported by 1/4 wall (I think) square tubing as dividers between the urinals....Of course that is all stitch welded together......HEAVY DUTY!!

    Google RID-O-RUST it's to keep iron stains from forming, mainly used in irritation systems, but they make a rust remover as well and works pretty good.

    You might be a welder if your 8 year old daughter can pull off better welds than some grown men.
