Oh believe me, I know. I ran a fire sprinkler distribution and fabrication company for 6 years til we sold it, and I had guys that welded in a circle all day, every day, and I know how skilled they were. I would like to be able to get 2 pieces to stay together one day.  :D

Getting them to stay together is the easy part.  Making it pretty is the hard part. The easiest way to lean is buy the welder and tell yourself your life depends on it.  {toast}

I was thinking the same thing. Tig welding is an art form.
