    Pints, actually. They are on sale at 7-11, $7 for 2 4-packs! :D

    Usually it's either PBR, Bud Light or Guinness.

      Impressive. I will begin trying my hand at the tungsten electrode this summer.

      Perhaps I will see if my instructor can do that. I am still trying to not burn holes in 3/8" mild steel with a stick.

        I have access to one, but no way in hell I could pull that off.

        Nice, OP. How many years of practice did it take?

            This was the third time trying, all in the same day. Firts two almost made it around, then burned through.

            Was on the second pint, not much for an Irishman :)

                  Impressive. Go for the 6G open root weld. It's guaranteed to get you frustrated.

                    You have to down hill it and run a bit hotter than you would think you need too, and I watch guys do them every single day. Then I look though them and tell them how well they did with it.
