How difficult is welding?

[littlebasher]

Reminds me of the time i was repairing the floor in a Mk2 Granada..On this occasion i chose to Braze the plate on rather than welding it.

About half way through i got an itch in my ear and decided to scratch it with the cold end of the rod. Except somehow i ended up scratching with the hot end - it went straight through my ear like a hot knife through butter. Dropped the torch, set fire to my overalls
