  1. Couple things I would like to see is how to grind your welds properly without taking away too much base metal or leaving valleys in the steel. Also it would be nice to see what you recognize as a good retouch area (you always do another pass with the welder after you grind, it would be cool if we could see your process on that). Awesome work Tony, we learn so much from you!

  4. I have watched you do the "cut and butt" so many times and it still amazes me. Something so simple but yet so strong when it is welded. Hey don't sweat the mistakes. Believe me we all make them. How you recover is what matters…
