At work I have access to a brake, shear, 240V MIG welder, stick welder, metal cutting band saw.

This summer we built a wood fired pizza oven and an out door stone fireplace; my goal this winter is to make copper chimney caps for both of them.

I will probably be looking for lots of advice.

Thanks

John
