    Hunter, even mig welding takes practice and experience. It is almost foolproof, but not 100%. No one starts out perfect. I am glad to see you are learning some stuff beyond swinging a camera.

    Hunter's idea is because he pays attention to the Fab Rats, Paul and Ben so he keeps the wheels of his brain turning. Also glad Paul is willing to help Hunter learn how to MIG, but he did say he could do stick pretty good. Thanks to everyone at Fab Rats for these cool vids.

    Ben, I would say use anti-sieze when you have two different metals, like stainless and regular steel and on any alloy like aluminium or magnesium. Oil and grease work great on a steel to steel connection.

    All the little comments on being allergic to silicone are hilarious as well- again I grew up hearing that stuff everyday. That extension paul used is for people who don’t like getting too close to their work!
    Much fun and I can’t wait until the next one.

    I realize Pappa Dar is a tested and true athlete but I think I might be a ok 2nd place. I'm kinda good at it.
