    Convert it to gas and you will never look back - just not having to clean up the weld splatter, including on your face shield will more then convince you.

    Your Radio Flyer will probably "fly" now - nice project

    I plan on converting it. Not having to clean up splatter would be nice. The wagon moves along pretty well. I'll try to find some pics of the frame and welds before I assembled it. The little 110 does decent welds. But like with anything, it's all in how well you prep the steel before hand.
    The wagons frame is made of 1x1x1/8 tube, I think, it may be 3/6. I can't remember. It was what ever we had laying out in the yard at work. Another benefit from working for a steel fabricator...an almost unlimeted supply of free material.

    The only better job I can imagine for the perks would be "night watchman at a chrome plating factory."

    How times have changed! 20 years ago you would have said "caretaker at a rehab center for nymphomaniacs".

    It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

    Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.

    How true. But you can buy sex cheaper than chrome.

    OK that was bad. I'm so sorry.
