That welding thing - yea. Even I've jackassed that once or twice. I wonder how many times you have to be standing there in a sleeveless shirt going - it's only a couple of short beads.... before you figure out it's a bad idea. Of course, if your tan is good enough, the burn isn't *that* bad....

HAHAHA, better yet, letting your niece drive your BL Mini-t while you're on the floor

soldering near carpet/in house-bad idea
turning your mini-t on without rear wheels off the ground-bad idea
signing up on rccrawler.com-good idea, but ignore some.
