I'd like to book my van in for some welding pleae Matt :mrgreen:


Rear doors need replacing or some serious repairs :wink:

A small patch of rust above driver's door - looks like it was caused by a blocked drain :evil:

Maybe fabricate me a new rear bumper? :lol:


I can provide plenty of tinnies to keep the workers lubricated :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Matt i think the Welding & Electric Demo offers might prove to be very popular & (including me :mrgreen: ) which will benefit quite a few of us who are unsure of certain jobs to tackle :D

Are we going to have any specific questions?

Im indending to have a little display of all the common types of welds and examples of good welds and poor welds - and the reason why...

Hopefully people would understand what a lap, butt and plugs are! :shock: :lol:
