Frosty,

No big deal,  I just couldn't pass that one up cause 7018 is such a great 
rod in my opinion.  I knew I shouldn't have used the word "accomplished".  I 
pretty much learned on 6010 and 7018 so I have a real good idea what to do 
with those.  I tend to agree with you on MIG, it seems to want to just lay 
on everything.  I have a small MIG setup but generally avoid using it.  It 
certainly has it's place, especially on thin material.  I do alot of  TIG 
welding on stuff cause of the control, size and appearance.
