Welding projects

[mrnotsam123]

Hey guys, With it being summer and all I've been thinking that maybe my fiance (she's the welder, I would help plan, prep and do finishing work) and I would make a few things. Ideally we are looking for something that appeals to lots of people and is something that would use materials that won't be super difficult to acquire. Personally I would prefer to stay away from large furniture Items but maybe at some point we could do those....Anyways, Just looking for ideas, Feel free to throw some out!

Thanks, Stay safe

-Nick

I have always planned to do one of these out of old car parts.http://ts1.mm.bing.net/th?&id=JN.y4SDe3iEp/WNF443vQQn9Q&w=300&h=300&c=0&pid=1.9&rs=0&p=0

Google welded horse sculptures to see dozens of works like this, it's amazing.http://static.boredpanda.com/blog/w...lded-scrap-metal-sculptures-john-lopez-17.jpg

you could do a fire pit project, pretty simple design
and lots of uses in summer.

here is an example

I made a barbecue very similar to that using oxyacetyline without filler rod.

Nice work CM, must've taking a bit fusing the metal together. :thumbup:
Oxyacetylene welding is so much fun, but I might purchase a stick welder once I find a job.
