Any welders in the house?

I figured some of you guys and gals would be welders here, one hot project goes hand in hand with another.


Currently i'm working on:
5x9' box trailer (From scratch)
Small upright grill
Medium size smoker
and various other knick-knacks


Telwin MIG 110v 120A Gas/Flux

Chicago Electric 110v 110A Flux

Chicago Electric 240v 120A ARC

B size Oxy/Acet cutting/brazing/welding setup
 
I've built many a smoker, this is the one i currently use...

I got a few projects on the go, two main ones - TA23 Celica rebuild and a 10KW generator.
I'm saving up to get a nice MIG/ARC/Plasma/TIG unit. I HATE my MIG it was cheap so I got what I paid for, I just borrow a better one if I got a lot of MIGing to do. My ARC is ok, big old skool bruiser.

What's with the black around your welds? Wrong gas?
I'm guessing MIG?
 
I learned with an ARC welder - I have an old Lincoln (welder) in my garage that I use once in a very great while. With lots of practice pieces to get the hang of it again before I start :lol:
 
I use a tri mix, I don't know why it's black like that always has been, welds look nice though. Plus I'm too lazy to clean the surfaces properly. Yeah I have a couple keg ones I made, they'll last a life time. :beer:
