    Try swapping it at a Pub? or switch to Argon / CO2 / O2 mix, for a lot better welding results, there is / was a deal with BOC Volkzone massive thread on it in the link below.

    I am stuck with Adams Gas not a bad deal though, no rental about £50 refundable deposit and £30 for the gas, they have suppliers all over the country, or look for a welding supplier in your area that does Hobby Gas (I don't mean the small bottles) poss Wellington Welding)? Their Hobby Gas is abou...

Some people..... just had a civic coming down a side road that didnt slow down or stop until he was out in the middle of the road. Had to swerve to the otherside and only just avoided writing off my mgb >.<

    I had some old woman in a Vauxhall Agila change lanes right next to me forcing me over. She then realised she was in the wrong lane so moved back over causing an Audi to swerve out the way.

    This is why it would be a good idea for old age pensioners to have their driving ability re-evaluated before they can renew their licence.

How many days work (roughly) do people reckon it takes to weld a new front end (front panel, outer wings, a panels)?

    Done by a Pro or done by a keen amateur? A Pro with the right gear could do it in a day assuming its straight panel swap with no rot to deal with.

what do people recommend - toshiba or HP laptop?

    Agreed on Hp and their thermal issues. I currently own a Toshiba, and it has been brilliant. I have upgraded the processor and changed the HDD to a hybrid SSD/HDD. Runs like a beast, from the moment i hit the on button, i am up and loaded in 15 seconds.
