Thanks for all the advice and great ideas, guys.
One more question......I've been thinking for a while now about getting a plasma cutter. There's something about having O/A torch equipment in my untrained hands that makes me hesitate in going the torch route, as a non pro, along with dealing with refilling or exchanging tanks and all that......I have shielding gas for the welder, but I'm not concerned there about igniting the shed or blowing myself into the next life out of ignorance and lack of training.....
....but my question now is.....can I also use a plasma cutter to generate high heat, as with an O/A torch, without cutting, as a feature of the device in order to do things like heat & straighten out that bend in the steel bar?
