Kent,
Top notch work on that video. Clear, concise, and well-demonstrated technique. As soon as it goes above freezing here, I'm going out to the workshop and try it.
Thanks,
Fred

This film details gas welding with both hydrogen and acetylene, and then covers stick welding, carbon arc, atomic hydrogen, and spot welding. Shows proper preheat and postheat methods for heavy sections, and proper edge beveling and gapping also. An excellent resource! Rare information!
