What welding projects are you working on? Are you proud of something you built?
How about posting some pics so other welders can get some ideas?

I've spent the last 4 weekends (and weeknights) working on fabricating this BBQ island. It's 1.5" x 1/8th" angle iron, welded wire mesh and the counter is a 3/16th sheet of steel. The counter is sealed in Everbrite and the vertical angle iron and wire mesh is rattle can sealed.

I included a shot of the interior so you can see that it's actually hollow on the inside for water, waste, electricity and gas line access. Instead of being just a giant block of rock, there is an inner and outer cage layer and rock compartments are 5.5-7" thick. Less rock was needed and now I can work on utilities in the future if needed.

Hobbyist MIG welder with 75/25 gas on a Lincoln SP-140 in my garage/workshop/gym/storage space. Very new and still learning.
