First big purchase

So here is a little preview of my studio space. Nice and messy perfect for knowing exactly where everything is at.  I share space with 3 other artists. One of those recently had a kid and had reduced their space as they rarely get in anymore.  Another is attending school again and is rarely in as well.  The 3rd is a blacksmith who is in all the time. So the picture here is my work table and area.

Here is my Miller Syncrowave 200 TIG welder with water cooler setup.  It was the first big ticket item that i purchased with my windgate money.  I must say that i absolutely love it.

Here is an example of playing around with mixing metals and welding them together.  In this i have welded some silica Bronze into some stainless flat stock to mimic a sort of stained glass effect. i will post the finished piece upon completion.
