Welding Tips and Tricks

new to welding and new to this forum. I just turned 60 years old and decided that I would try and teach myself welding, i.e. MIG, TIG. I do have the capability for stick welding too. I guess I had to fIigure out a way to stick 2 pieces of tubing together when I purchased a 4 passenger, VW powered sand rail. So I picked up a A Millermatic 140 autoset MIG welder and later I purchased a Miller MaxStar 200 DX, DC TIG welder. It looks like that I'm going to be retiring In a years I Will have plenty of time to practice.
My 1st serious project is a welding cart to hold both of these pieces of equipment, plus consumables in a drawer.

So I would appreciate a lot of patience from everyone as I know I'm going to be asking a lot of stupid questions.

Thanks for listening,
Bruce, a.k.a. builder1550

Welcome to the forum from another retiree just learning.

Bruce,
Welcome to the Forum! Remember, the only stupid question is the one not asked! Get some pictures of your cart, when you get to it.

Welcome mate...

Actually, anybody who thinks that there are no stupid questions has not had enough kids yet, just sayin'.
