Joan of Arc was the patron saint of welding.

For a few hours this ring dad and I worked in the garage of a few projects. A couple of weeks ago he had me pick up a large gate that we're going to install in the driveway at my father's place. It was a 16 foot gate, however we decided to cut off 13 feet in order to reduce weight and the necessity to cut out more of the wooded area since it was a bit overkill as is. We cut off one side followed by a short section and then had to weld beck on the side piece. Welding can be fun, but it is also a lot of work, scraping, welding, tapping, etc. We also picked up some 6"x6" metal post about 10 feet long to weld on the hinges.
