    Newbie

    Older guy taking welding classes. Never to old to learn. I hope to also learn something from this forum too.
    I always just put things together but hope to be able to say I'm a welder at some point.

    Thanks for the welcome. You should never ask for pics with me. Love taking pictures.
    I own and use my 2009 Jeep to play offroad. No Mallcrawler! One of the reasons I need to learn to weld better. Here are some pics on my rock sliders. They also work as a step, but the up force 4,000lbs. is what I built them for not 190lbs. stepping into the Jeep. More pics as I have projects on the Jeep and class time.







    Now in use ...or abuse depending on your thoughts. K-2 Mason, TX Note: Goldfish help you find your way back to camp.
