We needed to make a little shelf to hold cases of water/soda/beer. I had some scraps of metal, and wood from earlier other projects. Made it cost effective, now we just have to design, and assemble. Me and Daughter #2 drew out what we wanted, cut the metal with a bandsaw. We broke out the welder, and #2 tacked some metal together as a learning expierence. I finished the welds, and painted the rack. I will post finished pictures soon. Kim and My Mom and maybe others may think it odd that I teach a beautiful little girl how to weld, but I feel it may help, and shouldn't hurt them.
There may come a day where she may need to rely on skills aquired working with Dad. She may have a husband that is tool challanged, or he may just be a tool.
Either way, I think it helps your understanding of how things work, and buiild confidence, and lower inhabitions.
Besides, doesn't she look so damn cute in her welders mask!?

I think you are teaching her good things, maybe she can teach her granpa how to use his welder.
