My First Attempt at Welding

Today I received a new toy via the big brown truck; the Lincoln Electric "Handy MIG."  I've always wanted to learn how to weld and with a little money coming my way in the form of a tax refund I thought this would be the perfect time.

I'm glad I decided against getting a cart for this.  I just don't have the floor space.

I was able to get the unit setup and try welding for the first time.  The welds look like crap but at least it worked.  Hopefully I'll get to spend some time with it this weekend and dial in some of the settings.

Wiggly, spattery mess.
