You can boost your creatine through the roof by taking creatine monohydrate. I take it when I work out.
I know they tested for that the last time I cheated. I'm sure it was a fairly cheap test, though.
You make water with a sheet of plastic by making a solar still:

I learned that in the boy scouts

I bow down to the navy welder. I do some 4x4 welding stuff in my spare time for my friends and myself. I trust them to hold the weight of the vehicle and stuff, but they are ugly as hell sometimes. Real welding is an art form for sure. When you are into 4 wheeling you automatically have a bunch of survival shit, just to survive the trail.

to be a good welder you just have to do it A LOT. took me years to get really good at it. now I'm kinda rusty.
What do you use, 6011 or 7018 stick?
My Seabee detachment finally got a bunch of welding jobs for us to do. We are renovating animal habitats at the Phoenix zoo! It's pretty cool. I spent last weekend welding up wheelchair-accessible doors for the Owl Habitat

I think the real question is, after the welding is done, how well do you dance?

I just use a 220V Hobart MIG right now. I want to get a AC/DC cracker box at some point. I also have my own torch set up, a tubing bender that should be hydraulic soon, notcher, chop saw, and assorted grinders and other stuff.
I want to get a bandsaw and a mill($$$) next.

My dad is a master at TIG welding...did it on helicopters for years, but has his own business now. Does welding for specialty motor bikes and whatnot....better than a machine, its crazy. I thought about doing welding instead of a/c structures....it was pretty fun.

I would love a good TIG machine. To much money though. Oh yeah, the third tool I want is a plasma cutter. They cost lots of bling to though. Once I start making parts again this fall, maybe I can make enough to buy one.

I have a 220/440 machine called a Powcon. Navy Surplus
It does TIG or Stick, but DC only. It'll carbon arc, too.
I want one that does AC so that I can weld aluminum.
My gf is bugging me to make all our furniture out of steel. I need to get some more tools set up first.
