Newbie Welder

[Alfaman]

Picked up my new Murex last night, and a couple of helmets. Needed two, as my lad (5yrs) is absolutely desperate to get welding ASAP!

He wrote his name in black marker on his lid, and reckons we're gonna get welding up a wee racecar for him, as he is absolutely Ferrari daft!

I've got plans for a wee spaceframe-type car for him, with a 29cc strimmer engine & centrifugal clutch. Anyway, attached a pic, think he looks the part?

Bare legs and arms is not a good look for a welder, get him some ovies and do they do riggers in junior sizes

And don't let him strike an arc on that floor.

Here's a pic of his very first arcs ever struck! He's gonna turn out a better welder that his auld man, with a couple o' months practice
