Yeah, I reckon that around that time, I might just end up deploying my "Tool - Fine Adjusting" ahem, wink wink. But you never know.
By the way, does anyone think that buying a mask thus:

Weldequip,
Yes it s CE marked. It's not a physical belt from the torch handle, its an actual arc, from the right place, but you don't need to depress the trigger to get it!, the only thing that the trigger does is feed the wire. So as you line up ready to make the weld, it arcs, so you have to...
It would appear that the Wolf 100 Gasless MIG also suffers from this same short cut!!, just tried my first ever practice weld, and got the shock of my life - almost literally, oh what joy:( . Fortunately enough my mask was in place, and turned on!!. I suppose on the positive side, when I get...
Thanks Malcolm. I found myself quite envious actually, being able to measure the size of holes with a tape measure!!, I'm currently using a mixture of GPS, NASA & a theodolite!!.

Hi all,
Swanny from Carlisle here. I posted on the "Learning to Weld" thread last night, and there are a couple of pics of my 73 1200 Bug. Would love to swap horror stories/pics with any other bug owners, and especially wanting to see some very rotten ones!!!!, as I need to feel that I'm not...

Cheers weldequip,
Yeah, I was trying to apply Ohms law, and figure out the max power rating (consumption) of a Mig, and came up with at least 3kW, so it's bound to be more!!!.
Cheers

Not a geek - even though I mentioned Ohms Law!!!
Malcolm,
Thanks very much for the advice. But I don't actually have any heater channels!!!;)

Having now stripped the bug, I'm now in the sitting back and planning phase, but am stumped. If it...
Evenin all,
Firstly, I'm so chuffed I found this place, as I'm about to learn the art!. Have purchased a Gasless Wolf 100, has anyone used one??, what do u think of it?, I am hoping it will be of use in removing all of the daylight masquerading as Heater channels on my Beetle project. My other...
