<VV> Re: learning to weld

[Dave Morris "BigD"]

Man, you guys generate a ton of e-mails to this list.  I can't find any 
previous message entitled "Learning to Weld", nor can I figure out what 
product "I could make one" refers to.

All I know is that after taking a welding class at a community college, I'm 
glad I didn't buy a MIG welder and got an oxyacetylene torch instead.  I 
also discovered that Richard Finch's book on welding is more useful than 
the $150 college textbook they required us to buy for the class.
