Happy welding and most hoods are shade 10.
One good welding tip! Clamp your work and tack at opposite sides.

I think it will meet MY needs Jim..and Ive already found out about grinding the paint OFF where I want to weld....LOL ( Duhhhh...
..) Rust I knew about..but painted areas escaped me. Im going to try some of that "anti spatter" stuff and see if that REALLY does any good...especially on the nozzle ( MAN..does THAT THING ever get nasty looking!!!)
This winters indoor project will be to build a REAL cart..to hold everything. Cylingers...keep hoses and cables wound up properly...etc..etc. And THEN I can do some exploring of its more total capabilitys
