No Go Welder

We Are up against a bit of a steel wall the welder we found does not have the proper wire. and the stick welders are to butch to weld the thin wall steel. Frank and Tito are on there way to San Salvador Monday and I am going to work on props. however fibreglass is less than half the price here than in Canada a readily available.

Yesterday before we got to work we had the refreshments purchased for Tatiana and John's birthday party. and we stopped into the scrap yard to see Mario and found a mig welder they were storing in the back of a minivan shed (miller 130). It took a bit to do the haggling Thanks Tito. Only problem was it had a the wrong wire. luckily otro Mario was in San Salvador and pick us up some. Today were off to see if we can make it work and prep for the students on Monday.
