Making A Welding Table

Speaking of zinc, I would like to get some thin strips to apply to my roofs that love to host moss at a great rate. Anyone heard of a supplier of such?

Sometimes it helps to screw the nut on to a thread, makes holding it a little easier

The vise and Dremel tool worked perfectly for this job. Time to fire up the welder for the first time this year. It's finally warm enough to do some work out in the garage.

Well, I finally got around to firing up the welder for the first time this season. Got the new nut welded on. Not the best welds but not too bad considering it's been many months since I've welded anything.

Ed, even though I weld quite often (relative?) I find that my first few inches of weld are poorer than the rest. I often wonder if it's the welder warming up or the weldor warming up.
