Not bad. I appreciate the work as I spent all day welding aluminium for the first time really since I moved here in November... kinda a different rhythm, you know? The only thing I would say is when you blow out the tungsten (from touching the puddle) clean that **** out more. It's a pain but I always stop, brush it out and then some acetone, break off the bad tip on the tungsten and re-ball it, start fresh.

you weld a bung on the intake... one side of the catch can is for the head, the other side is the "vent". walllllaaaa its vented. then there's a drain on the bottom. doesn't get any simpler.
