Feel free to mock, I only picked up a stick welder for the first time every on Sunday. So far I have managed to strike an arc reasonably regularly, run a reasonable bead and weld a length of timing chain to a car brake disc.

I give it a month before you're posting from A&E.
(In seriousness, that's pretty cool.)
I am thinking of trying to make a tiny yo-yo for the raised finger
