Watched all kinds of videos for days and then purchased 2 welders and a plasma cutter. So far all I’ve been able to build was a hole in my wallet and a scrap pile of molten metal....

Welcome from Pennsylvania. What kind of welders do you have, what type of welding (stick, mig,tig) are you interested in? Have you welded before? And don't be afraid to ask questions in the proper forums and patience Grasshopper, patience.

I updated my signature to show the equipment that I purchased. I am a beginner welder with some experience with gas welding in High School.
I mostly TIG weld aluminum coupons for the moment...I’ve used the MIG welder a few times to test it....
I had my first major problem with a bad batch of argon that was driving me nuts! My worlds got progressively worse as the bottle volume decreased. Thanks to some research here and a phone call to AHP I was able to diagnose the bad argon. Back on track now
