A weld on an industrial stainless steel tank at Tide Point . The site was once housed a Proctor & Gamble soap factory and is now an office park.

Moving from flat plate to the curves of mitered tubes is a big step in difficulty (for me). Everything changes directionally as you move along the joint. I'm not posting these because I think they show good welds. Just an example of where I am in the learning process.
Tubing here is 0.035" wall.
This hand crafted, welded Steel & Copper Birdfeeder stands approximately 6' tall. The upright support is welded to an "I-beam" shaped base which has been uniquely designed to allow the piece to stand securely upright when "planted" into the ground approximately 8 -10 inches deep.
The 'feeder' portion consists of a welded stainless steel screen designed to hold bird seed a safe distance off the ground. Shielded to a degree from rain, wind, and sun - the stainless steel screen allows for rapid drainage of any water, and will never rust through.
Once 'planted' into the soil, the design allows for the roots of surface vegetation to reach through and firmly anchor the piece into the ground. The top 'feeder' portion is designed to allow for enough gentle movement to replicate the subtle natural motion of tree branches.
My welding hood has little pockets for headphones inside.
Of course you can't hear the music over the noise of the welder.

Three pieces of wrought iron forge-welded together. Left the ends unwelded to see if this technique would work for making the dividers under discussion here www.practicalmachinist.com/vb/antique-machinery-history/d...
I've been commissioned to build replacement, cat-less mid pipes for a Porsche 986. This is a shot shows the beginning of the final welding process after the part has been assembled, tacked, and test fitted on the vehicle. The part is in a jig I built to aid in fit-up and secure the part from drawing out of alignment during welding.
The kid got to do some arc welding in the Production and Design shop. Note that when I said "Jazz hands!" she did "ballet fingers" on "jazz arms". That cracks me up!
