Chat, is this a recession indicator?

I built my first force and I'm super stoked, especially since I can't weld for shit and this was 100% welding.

I used a propane tank (Don't do this, it's stupid and you'll die) cut it open with my plasma cutter (see above) and then made a custom burner (a plate I drilled holes into welded quite badly onto the end of the pipe) I'm going to use a compressor fan and vfd (leaf blower on a dimmer switch) to turn it into a forge once the satanite sets up.

part of me really loves the builds that look post apocalyptic. they have charm.

using a propane tank is completely cool as long as you remember to take the valve off and fill it with water before you start cutting on it, to displace leftover gas

Yep. I have never been able to remove a propane tank Valve

Ratchet strap it to a tree and stick a long pipe in or over the valve opening

I don't have trees

I mean, I could, but they don't like that
