Why would you ever buy a 7018 box of rods that you have to keep away from 
AIR?
Get any pipeline or tank welder to tell you what they did w/ 7018 at the end 
of the day.
They either tossed them in the dumpster, or took them home for some poor 
unsustecting blacksmith to struggle with.
Why would you associate "hobbiest" with don't work?
