I have to admit, I'm really enjoying working with my hands and learning this stuff. The little Lincoln MIG I got with the .023 easy grind wire has made some of my welds look better than I am. I look at others work and just marvel at the artisanship. Nice bunch of guys too and VERY supportive.

Keep at it.

I agree with the forum crew here - very supportive and similar to what I've found in other Harley/plane forums...Except on those boards I'm giving more of the advice than receiving, so I REALLY appreciate the help here.

I've heard a lot about the easy grind .023 but haven't found any locally or online. I'll nab some if I do though...I grind a lot. :-)
