Welding lessons

We brought the steel right to Dobby's house and he started to tack weld them together before we clamped them into place in Luna.  He did all the real work - but he gave Johnny and I each an arc welding lesson.  I didn't do very well and since everyone listened to the "DON'T LOOK" directions - so there isn't a picture of me failing at it.  Johnny on the other hand - did great!  His weld was awesome for a beginner!
Dobby doing the real welding work - welding the brace pieces to the tongue pieces.

Welding Supervisors: Ellie, Johnny and Grampa John.

Making the template for when we need to bend the steel to fit inside the hitch.

Johnny getting his welding lesson after mine didn't go so well.

Very proud boy - he did great!

Johnny's practice welding!

Ellie having her practice lesson without power. So cute!
