Last year i bought a welder and a propane tank the same day, (the only thing i ever welded is the smoker i built last year, sold it and building another, bigger and badder) lol

For what it is worth, you may want to check for someone who does sand blasting in your area. I had mine blasted last year for $75! best money I ever spent and, I didnt have to deal with all the sander dust!
 
great welds, got your wire speed and amps about perfect id say, keep the pics coming

tomorrow i plan to attach banding to doors, i like the look of it being on the inside, is there any pros and cons from being on the inside verses the outside?any tips and tricks would be helpful.
 
i noticed they the doors warped when they were cut, the one that warped "out" is almost the thickness of the tank, is there any way to fix this.IMG00349-20120603-1840.jpg
