Welding update for ol Curt
 

I took some of your advice and clamped a copper piece behind the blow holes and welded them shut. Knowledge is KING!:thumbs:

Also found out it is a good idea to wear some gloves when grinding as grinders bite if you are not careful!!

I'm quite proud to see it go from a piece cut out that looked like this,Attachment 418020


to this...Attachment 418021





Not show quality work, but a start.


But then of course there is the boo ;)booAttachment 418022
