Don't know where else to put this... Was big fun! 
Power supply came from the longest 400V extension cord I've ever seen...
And considering it was windy, the metal rusty & brittle - I managed to get some OK welds.
AND bearing in mind it's made of 100% rusty scrap metal, the gate looks almost good
Well - for my first gate I'm pleased. And given the availabillity of metal (old garden fences, construction steel and two very old gates), I'm VERY pleased actually.
Cheers,
Jan
