What welding projects are you working on? Are you proud of something you built?
How about posting some pics so other welders can get some ideas?

So I picked this truck up 2 months ago for $2200.

95 Chevy 2500 350 auto with a decent stahl bed.

Had to do front ball joints, and some other misc stuff.
Then I repainted the bed and built a bolt on headache rack.

Enjoy the pics, more info at the end.

There you have it....

A decent work truck....

Any questions, feel free to ask.
My time is your time. :D

In case anyone wondering, that guy cutting the expanded metal isn't wearing safety glasses.
He must of missed the first day of welding class.
Just a couple welders and a couple of big hammers and torches.

No doubt about you John, boundless enthusiasm, embraced by good skills
Looks like a pretty reasonable result. Should get some good use out of that.

NICE WORK! I love your willingness to take a project and get very involved in it! Details matter, and you pay attention to details! I enjoy your outdoor work spaces - and I am sure that they are great - until is starts to snow or rain. Maybe you can talk to that guy about the safety glasses issue in a company memo, company safety meeting, or annual company event like a picnic or formal dinner

Thanks Boomer.

I had $2,800 in the truck, and I just sold it tonight for $3,800.

Not bad. I'll pick up another one soon.
