  1. Having depleted my stocks of Lidl fluxcore welding wire, I've been using this stuff for a while now and its absolutely fine. The same really, quite possibly from the same factory.

    A fancy-brand fluxcore wire I bought from the DIY store in an emergency was slightly better, but not drastically so and definitely not justifying paying 60% more. I'm not welding passenger airplanes here.

  6. Progress on the #PalletFork

    Working with reclaimed steel is a lot slower. I was cleaning up rust and dirt, welding shut some holes where the fence wire used to go through and painting rust converter on where it would be difficult later.

    After much measuring and aligning, I cut the frame and tack-welded it together.

    Then a filler plate into the top.

    In between, some angle grinder repair (broken wire) and of course the fluxcore reel ran out and needed swapping.
