Hi, i looked out for a 2nd hand mig welder and found a nearly new clarke 135te with wire and gas only paid £110 for it. My water bowser smoker bbq is now nearing completion, taken a lot longer than i thought but shoule be ready for a test soon

i was looking at water bowsers to make a big trailer smoker out of, has it been a hard build or just a long one?

Its been a long rather than hard. The wheels on the bowser were to hard to match (bedford cf 152 pcd) so had to sorce different hubs. Bottom of the bowser had become rusty so had to cut out and put a new bottom in and so on and so on, but there is a light at the end of the tunnel. Its also been put to one side now and again due to other commitments, oh and finances
