since my garage is mostly cleaned up and i had a rough day i decided to spend some time welding, it always makes me feel better. :)
it is the time of year that the creek at teh bottom of my street starts to givce the gift of life to knats and mosquitos. so there were some bugs around.
after welding the basic rectangular frame of the welder cart i am making i stopped to take a break and noticed that there were no bugs anywhere in teh garage or with in prolly 10feet of the open garage door.
i wonder if it is the welding or argon or something else that drove them away.
nice to know i can work on welding projects without having knats buzzing in my ears :)

later
