Hey, I know this isn't completely bike related, but I'm looking into picking up a small arc welding setup, something like maybe a lincoln weldpak 100 or the like (this one is FCAW, but can be converted to mig/gmaw with a kit). Any of you guys have experience with these things? I've done a lot of oxy-acetylen welding, but I don't really want to use a torch in the basement workshop, too much fire hazard. Plus an arc welder is much more portable, and a bit more versitile. I hear that learning to put down a passable weld with a small arc rig is pretty simple, so that part I'm not too worried about.
Any of you keep welding gear in the house? Run into any problems? Any general advice?
