[QUOTE="TheTallGuy, post: 1112044, member: 9121"] I wouldn't let this little spat put you off - if you haven't done much welding (or any), then get a basic stick welder to start with - you can always upgrade later if you want to, but go for an inverter type if you can afford it. The most important thing with welding is to have an auto-darkening helmet as the basic "face shields" supplied with most welders require you to hold it with one hand - you also have to guesstimate the striking point as you can't see through the glass until the arc strikes! An auto darkening helmet will allow you to safely see what you are doing before, during and after the weld. [/QUOTE]
