You can see the Mig in the pic of the base frame and if you zoom in you can see 10mm pads welded to a 10mm plate, nothing pulled on this frame. Full disclosure here this was My Son Jareds (Jazz) welding, not mine, my eyes are knackered so my welding days are done.!

...and to the left of the welder, the ubiquitous DeWalt grinder :)

All seriousness - that's a nice job - surprised that's the result of MIG, approaching TIG quality. Impressive.

Yes, the good old Dewalt grinder and it's got the Evil wire brush on it.

If you think that's good you should see the welds that he does with the big German-made EWM Mig welder.!....That thing is amazing and the speed it welds at is unbelievable, the control panel is like a spaceship, you tap in a code for the material and type of weld joint you are doing and it sets all the settings amps. volts, wire feed, etc and monitors them as you weld, you basically pull the torch along and the metal just flows like water, he says it almost feels like cheating because it's so easy.

My reply is " So it bloody well should @ £6k"....
