Welding is a skill that you really need to learn in practice from a trained instructor. I've done it before small scale but the lads I hire in to do my welding in work have been at it years!

Nothing on the car  :scared:

Someone has been trying to pry open the window in my garage so will make some bars for the window.

Also need a table for my printer with storage for the rolls of vinyl.

Ah in that case it's all minor stuff! Practice makes perfect! Start by welding 90deg angles together and then check their integrity by smashing them with a hammer in a vice... Try and get a lesson from a welder in a workshop somewhere also  :jumpmove:

Been doing a little practising getting better.

But then the wire ran out loaded a new rear and its sh*t. Bought another real that was also sh*t.

lukemk5gti:
That angle actually looks pretty solid to be honest! Good work  :happy2:

Since you'll be making things for around the house I'd now focus on aesthetics. Try clean the droppings off of that original angle and then get a wire head attachment for a drill and polish it up!

Thanks mate i have some anti splatter spray which should help. I've ordered some more wire which hopefully is as good as the wire that came with the machine.
