Did some cutting, trimming and grinding to get the upper seat platform ready to go in tomorrow.

Gloves are for little girls, snowflakes, and dumb guys who just took them off and forgot to put them back on! ;D
Don't think a glove would have help...

Lookin' good except for the finger. At least you have safety glasses on....more fingers than eyes.
First Weld! I cut a rusted piece out of the driver's side support, and spliced in a piece.
FIRST WELD ON THE BRONCO!
FIRST WELD USING MY WELDER!
WELDER NOT DIALED IN PROPERLY!
FIRST NON-PRACTICE WELD!
Yes! It's ugly, but it's solid and a grinder does wonders for appearance! ;D
Looks.... "Obscure" to me... ;D
best practice is to take two pieces of sheet metal over lap them by 2-3" aNd tack on both ends. Then use a 1/4" drill and put as many holes in that overlapped section. Then practice away filling them. key is to make sure back side is melted too and you cant see the outline of the circle from the drill....
Yep. That's what I've been doing. I just for fun decided to start out on this little filler piece. I probably should have practiced and tuned in the welder more, but I couldn't help myself!
practice makes perfect big guy...
