spadam 7 Posted January 18, 2011 Report Share Posted January 18, 2011 Yes im intrested mate when your available. As you said can repair the sill and weld that as some practice. Either that or the cat idea. Link to post Share on other sites
bungy 2 Posted January 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2011 Should be able to do both. Sill will use a slide hammer and weld shut the holes used to pull and the cat will be a straight cut and shut..... Link to post Share on other sites

oldmandon 1 Posted January 21, 2011 Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 I'd love to learn to weld with mig/tig/gas, I used to be able to weld (after a fashion!!!!) with an ark welder, but that was a LONG time ago............My issue now is time and money. Link to post Share on other sites
bungy 2 Posted January 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 A decent MIG set can be had for about £300 and although not as good as Argon, Co2 can be had in large bottles without rental. Come and have a play if you fancy a go.... Link to post Share on other sites
