    Mawmaw and I took the girls for a walk in the woods behind the house yesterday. Spooked a couple deer out of their beds, let them walk logs. I cut a vine loose and knocked a small dead tree over and it lodged into another tree at a 45*. Perfect for them to walk up and swing on the vine. They got their first grapevine swing at age soon to be 2 and 4. They had a big time! :)

    2 & 4 are great ages Bonz. The wonderful thing about grandkids; after you're through having a ball with them, you can give them back to their parents and look forward to the next visit!

    Best,
    Kelly

    They live a couple blocks away and we've been babysitting them 5 days a week since the oldest was weaned from the tit. I can't hardly get anything done because it takes us both to keep them entertained. During lockdown we had a break.

    Never had a Lincoln but they have a great reputation! What AMP is the mig?
    And make sure you teach those kids not only to weld but think out side the box!

    Hi Vincent,
    It's a 140 Mig, 90 Arc, 120 Tig.
    Portability was the leading factor I needed. At 15.5 Kilo's it fit the bill.
    I looked at a lot of multi-process welders and there are a lot of them with more bells and whistles.
    What sold me was the duty cycle (60 @95A), a 3 year warranty and made in the USA.
    My wire and rods came in today but I was busy running the chainsaw.
