I've been looking to do a few DIY projects in the garden.  The main one is to build a gate to replace the wooden one that fell to bits over the last winter.  I'd started out looking for some welding kit and had been asking Marting at advanced welding supplies (a friend had recommended them) about options.  He was helpful about advising what to buy, he's recommended a low cost  Welding Inverter  that should alst a fair while, but he's also impressed by suggested using some of the scrap yards near me to get the bits rather than buying in the metal.  That had never occured but a quick phone showed they'd be got various bits from old fences that might do the trick.  Should be getting the kit next week so I'll try and update these pages with some pictures of the various projects as I complete them.
