With an angle grinder and a MIG welder, you can dismantle and remake the world.

Sometimes I reminisce about the days when I was a mechanic. Small jobs like cutting off what remained of a small lower unit fin of a boat, cutting a blank to size to weld back on, grind it all smooth, prime and paint. To look brand new when done. Cut out rusted brackets and weld in new stock. Welding together shelves for the parts area from angle iron. It was really empowering. I’m glad I got out of that and work in IT now. It’s easier on my body and I make a hell of a lot better living but the sense of accomplishment doesn’t remotely compare to stepping back and admiring something I fixed or built.
