Re: Ugly welder

That is ugly, you should see some of the esabs we have in the yard and some of the old millers, 6 - 10 coats of paint at least.

Re: Ugly welder

I'm pretty ugly. Possibly competing with that machine for ugliness but looking at me wouldn't be anywhere near as interesting.
Plus I'm not entirely certain that I would qualify as 'ugly' welder'...ugly yes but welder....perhaps creator of sparks, swearing and bird****-like metal.

Re: Ugly welder

I don't own anything close to that ugly, but if I didn't have a machine and only $50 to spend and that was the best I could find, I'd buy it in a heartbeat.

Can't imagine not having the capability to weld something when I want to.

Re: Ugly welder

All I can say to that is "If I had a dog that ugly, I would shave its a$$hole and make it walk backwards!"
