The welder that's been donated works, has a big spool of wire and a regulator for disposable bottles. We only need some more gas and the PPE (most notably a face shield) to make it usable.
The welder that's been donated works, has a big spool of wire and a regulator for disposable bottles. There is also a simple mask and a couple of gas bottles. The main requirement now is a screen, though it can be used as it is, as long as nobody else is nearby. Please make sure the webcam is not pointed at the welding as it may be damaged.


Disposable gas bottles are OK to start with but you need to pretty well supply your own for each job as they won't last long. If anyone has some scrap steel for practising on, please bring some bits along. Not galvanised steel, please.
