Default See What You've Done!

I've hung out here for a while, watching each of you in your cutting, welding, and now you've all inspired me to learn how to weld. Problem is, I'm a computer nerd with no idea on how to do it, except from watching the old man set fire to the paddock welding the chook shed.

I'm gonna go out and get me one of Steve's $100 arc welders, and post up pics of my bird poop impressions.

Can any of you give the newbie some tips?
