I think Kurt is working on a date. I think this is a great, idea BTW. Hopefully I'll be able to come by and show off my newly acquired mad skillz. If you think they suck, I can just blame my instructor. I can bring a helmet, too.

I can bring or lend (If I can't make it.) 2 Helmets and I think I might have the chepo hand held mask that came with my Mig welder.

BTW, those that are looking to learn. Home Depot or Lowes sells a pretty good welding book.
I'd like to try gas welding (brazing ?)
I have a torch but it is really a big cutting torch and not good for making little puddles.
Anyone have a small handle they want to sell / trade?

I'd be up for it, and as an added bonus I will have the ugliest car there so you all can look good by comparison.

I would like to join in. I also have a couple of doors taking up space which are rusted enough we can use them for practicing on an actual porsche metal part. Happy to donate them for that purpose.
