I think we also need a ceiling-mounted welding curtain to protect other peoples' eyes - these seem to be about £50-60. We'd probably want to curtain off the far corner in the dirty shop. [[User:Russ|Russ]] 10:29, 22 July 2010 (UTC)

We also need some additional tools and an angle grinder, but I have this equipment (on loan somewhere else that I'll try and retrieve back in the next week or two [[User:t0m|t0m]]
I can supply about £100 worth of accessories and consumables that I have lying around - reels of wire, regulator, disposable gas bottles, clamps, tips, leather gauntlets etc. - does this mean we have enough pledged or weren't they costed in! --[[User:Nigle|Nigle]] 16:12, 26 July 2010 (UTC)


* Not sure what welder was targeted but [http://www.machinemart.co.uk/shop/categories/search/diy-mig-welders these] are 250-300 for anything above the really minimal. It's hardly ever worth buying at the bottom of the range .. though an offer at Lidl, Aldi, Costco etc. might be worth looking out for if this welder is only a stepping stone to an industrial one.
