But I get your point, and if I had a place to keep/hook up a welder I would purchase one.
This is what I was just going to say. I really like the idea of investing in that equipment but I don't have a garage or work place or even room at my place to store that kind of stuff. I'm also a senior and will be relocating after I graduate this May so I'd like to keep the amount of stuff I move to a minimum before I settle in somewhere else.
