Thanks Zadvorney for your reply.

You're right zadvorney, but i'll first want to get a MIG to work with; I have a stick welder, but I thought that will make a better looking job with a Mig welder (looking for a 220 volts like lincoln 180)...So, I believe it will be for fall project... I'm not a pro welder. I forgot to tell you did a very nice hammer, you have to be proud of it, enjoy it.

Always watching you, very interesting... It will be helpfull for me.

I enjoy those video, very helpful.... Thanks
