Hi Guys & Girls
I have been a lurker on these forums for a few months, been fascinated to have a go at welding after watching Dom ******'s you tube channel. The final aim is to carry out repairs to my dream car Vw beetle once I can get one. Anyway as usual popped into Lidl to grab a couple of grocery bits and a little gasless welder caught my eye. Right I know its not going to be the best route to learn but it suits me because I can only practise outside as I don't have a garage.
Anyway I have so far brought, the welder, a auto darkening helmet (also from lidl), a pair of gloves and jacket and just got a 4.5" grinder from wickes.
My real question is what discs do I need to get for the grinder? I assume metal cutting? do I use this to also grind welds and I have seen some recommend a mop type, can anyone recommend some basic (cheapish!) discs.
Cant wait to have a go.
