There is structural welding and then there is "artistic" welding. Apparently you are dabbling in artistic welding but in a structural venue. This welding at cross purposes is your problem. Quit trying to do structural welding and follow your muse into the realm of artistic welding where you can become more fully self realized, in contact with your inner artist and more able to freely exhibit your self expression.

That plus you won't be killed or injured when something structural you welded gives way.
