Beginner's Project (Pics of Safe Box)

admin

Here is the most basic of beginner's projects. With a Lincoln AC/DC stick welder, 7018 rods, and 11 guage steel, I made this behemoth. ~12" by 10" by 3", it weighs about 35 pounds. Don't ask me what the heck you are suppossed to use it for. It should survive the next nuclear attack though. It was pretty simple to make, and gave me the opportunity to practice my (limited) welding skills. Note to beginners everywhere; regardless of what your project is, break down and spend $10 on one of those corner magnet things that holds your pieces together at a right angle while you weld. Impossible to get right angles in your finished piece without it. Attached Images
