Okay, so I've been doing this car for years without a welder. It certainly would be handy to have one though. I've always just assumed the only way to go with a welder is to get like a $5000 Lincoln or something like that, which I would never be able to justify. I'm wondering what experiences you guys have with affordable ones though. I saw that youtube guy Scotty Kilmer has one from Harbor Freight, and he's a pretty experienced mechanic. That's what got me thinking about this. I wouldn't have anything too extreme to use one for, little brackets for this or that... exhaust tubing... I guess I'd like to be able to weld a seat brace to my floor... stuff like that. Would a harbor freight special work for that?

Thanks!
