[python] Re: welding

Greetings Marc and Listies!

There are oooodles of things to do with such a machine. Some of the machines of 
this type I looked at on the web have over 50 differently programmable modes of 
operation. For me, the investment is much too high. I think I may hire out some 
welding sometime later this year. My nephew is a crack-welder, but too many 
thousand miles and 1 ocean too far away.

Thanks for the infos

Ron
