Attention folks -
There is a welding supply company "rescue welding" out east that is going out of business and they are selling all their inventory at their cost + actual shipping. Great deals to be had on filler rod, abrasives, gloves, etc. Cheaper than anywhere else you'll find, basically, (if you are not in the business of supplying welding equipment yourself.)
I don't have any affiliation with them, aside from just making one purchase and being pretty happy with the deals I got. Need to act quickly though, before they close up shop.
"Matt" was good to deal with and he even accepted paypal.
Their contact info:
20 Rescue Lane
Somersworth, NH 03871
