I have a fist full of dollars now too. I sold my '77 Sportster yesterday. Sorry to see her go but I just got to old to enjoy it anymore.
So what to do with a fist full of dollars.... First thing is to get my shop wired for 220 them buy the fancy Mig welder from Miller.
I will take JT up on his advice and learn to make some kick ass bar grills. Who knows... it just might come in handy for my yard art too.

Sorry to hear you had to let yer lover go... BUY HEY...PLAYING MONEY Oh yeah, have yer self a blast, you deserve it. That old sporty had to be a heart Breaker to watch go. I know a lot of these New Harley hard noses look down on the sporty and call it a womans bike but Hey... Back in the day Hope you got all you wanted for it.
Education is a crutch with which the foolish attack the wise to prove that they are not idiots.

I want a TIG welder so I can add an alloy of metals to the blend. I want to sculpt a radius of welded metal across the rods that make up the grill.
I want to blend together, the trim and laten..... I want to create new alloys....
Most of all...I want to be able to melt a bunch of stuff together.....
How about blue glass and bronze?
Just my thoughts on the subject....
I got money to burn.....

I have a lil MM 175 at home for normal day to day use but we have a Synchrowave 250 at work that I really like. I haven't done anything more than stick aluminum together with it yet but I love copper and am looking forward to learning to stick that together some day in the near future...

Yes... I jumped on the Band Wagon and ordered two... They won't last long at $15.00 each.
However if enough of us order them... they will increase production and lower cost.
This makes me want to introudice the:

Bigger and Better than before...
I am still working on the larger dish.
Sold 2 of my prototype big dishes to help finance the new mold development.
I gave in and bought the other, teardrop shaped one... Just too good of a deal!
And good, you did continue production of those dishes - I still haven't used mine at full capability. I did, however, get that bump out, after long session of hammering... It was a "happy metal pounding" experience, anyway.
