I bet if you had the time and space you would do well. It is not all that much different than fixing a car.

I built these for my daughters Christmas presents. The first one took forever, but each one gets easier and faster.

We've taken some stabs at flux-core and MIG welding. I can make booger welds that will hold things together but I can't make an attractive weld for shit.

I'm pretty good at burning right through things, though. The problem is that an idiot is teaching an idiot and we're kinda guessing as we go. Idiot one was taught by a pretty good welder but he still pretty much sucks and is trying to teach me. So mostly we just **** up a bunch of tube steel and try again.

But yeah, it was fun realizing that we could add metal back if we shorted things. Again, we sucked at that as well, but we had some gaps of around a quarter inch that we could fill in and still create a bond that was sturdy enough to hit with a car. Pretty cool shit to fiddle with but I'm not sure I have the patience to get good at it.

You need to talk to my dad. He taught the dumbest **** that ever lived to weld (me). He can teach anyone.

Wow, that's impressive!

I didn't think you were good for anything but working on those crappy Dodges.

Thanks Tim, it is actually very similar. Here is how it actually goes. These boards are glued together after going through the planer, then the jointer, ends cut on the radial arm saw then dowels drilled with a jig to line up correctly.
