Welding 101

Our older daughter came home for a couple days during spring break.  She had asked if she could try her hand at welding.  So...seeing a great blogging opportunity, I quickly grabbed the camera and documented her experience.
Here she is set to go.  (She'll probably kill me for this one. ;) )
Getting ready to try again.  Our girl and my honey.

A sample of her work.
She's not ready to go into this as a full time profession, but she did get some idea of how to do it.  Our youngest daughter had lessons afterward, but I forgot to get pics of that-next time.

Holy cow! How many young women can weld?? She should be impressed with herself and you and her dad proud of her. (Not many gals could look as attractive as she does in that get-up either!)

Mama Pea-She is a cutie, eh? She's the one who shingled our roof, too. :)

Mel-You get your lesson when you get home again. Maybe a little blacksmithing?? lol

O geez Mom! That is not a flattering picture.

I think I might need a little bit more practice, but he said I was getting better! Can I learn to blacksmith with Mel?
