thats where i welded some two pieces of metal together.
Extremely scary, sir was like, if u happen touch the floor on which u are standing, u will be ELECTROCUTED!
I heard about people making ND filters with a piece of welding glass, so I bought this for $4.98 at Lowe's. It's a replacement lens for a welding helmet, that's pretty darn dark -- I won't know how dark until I shoot through it and measure the stops.
At some point, I'll buy a cheap UV filter, break out the cheap/useless glass, and glue it onto this dark chunk to see what it will do. (Looking through it, it seems to have a deep green color cast, so I'll likely have to shoot in black-and-white at that point.)
Main reason to use an ND filter: to get a slower exposure time outdoors.
Two reasons to want a slower shutter speed outdoors:
1. Flash-sync. If you use flash outdoors and have a slow sync speed (mine is 1/200), you generally have to stop down the lens to f/16 or smaller. If you want f/2.8, for example, you'll need an ND filter.
2. Long exposures in daylight can smooth pond ripples, waterfalls, or blur moving people out of existence. I'd like to try that someday without spending $100 or more on a decent ND filter.
After 2 years of saying "I would love to take some photos of your welding shop" I finally brought my camera over to John's welding shop. I was not disappointed.

Today I learned how to weld with Barrett Lowe. It was quite interesting. I went into it thinking that it was going to be pretty easy, but there a lot more to it than connecting pieces of metal. One of your goals while welding to get a nice consistent bead. I was only able to that a couple of times, but it was still a good learning experience and can't wait to do it again.

without an apron i am a mess. and who wants sissy baking mitts when you can use cool welding gloves?
Not entirely satisfied with this weld. I had a look from the other side and the seam didn't achieve uniform penetration. The next piece I welded in was a lot better though -- with really nice, uniform penetration. Sadly I didn't take any pictures of it, but I spent 5 minutes under the car, staring at the weld, grinning and thinking "okay, that's a good one. hope I remember what I did to achieve that".
I was a bit impatient, so I did the incremental spot welds a bit too quickly and as a result the metal buckled a bit, but I don't really care -- this weld won't be visible and the main thing is that it is a strong weld.
or maybe braze, not sure about what this walking aid is made of!
I just liked the potential for postwork!
