Re: Donz '65 SWB Stepper Budget Build...

Congrats on the welder (Go Bears!!). I never welded before 80 days ago. Take your time. There are some good posts on the welding thread in this forum. One thing I learned last week is to not use the big 4.5 inch grinder on welds. It over heats the metal. We are now using double cut-off wheels to take down the big welds and then smoothing with an angle grinder and roloc sanding pads. Very surprised at how well it smooths them. Been using 36 or 40 grit. Good luck, lots of pictures!
