Welding....OH YEAH

For several years now I

have wanted to learn to

weld.

 

Yep, you read it right.

My BF Chris showed me a

few weeks ago how it is done

then Sunday he let me loose in the

garage with this piece.

 

Hey Mark (my brother) this is a piece you

found years ago that I took

home and it has been in one

flowerbed after another all this

time....

The issue with this piece is I had to

either bury the bottom in the ground

or place a heavy rock on it

so that it would remain standing since the

side that extends outward makes it heavy

on the end...yep, it would tip over

a lot of the time.

 

 

My idea was to have a piece come up from the center

which would also go down in the ground like

a spike. The piece I added is taller also and

I have had several parts like you see here

already. Going to be awesome with a vine

growing up it.

Sorry for the teaser here but I don't

have a pic of it finished yet!

I really want to put it in the ground to

take that pic and I have not

gotten there yet!

 

But I need to show you a couple of pics

of me at work!

LOL

 

 

Mark is probably reading this and wondering

WHO would ever hand me something like

that to play with!

 

Check out those sparks!

 

 

Plus, I used a chain saw to cut

wood (first time ever)....on the

same day.

And I still have all my limbs!

 

Thanks for stopping in,
