Anyone who started welding specifically for small DIY or art projects, what setup would you recommend?
I’ve been thinking about getting into welding, mostly for small creative projects rather than anything serious or structural.

I’ve seen some really cool metal art made from old horseshoes, tools, pipes, and other pieces of steel.
