Trying to Eliminate Drone. Need Another Opinion.

I'm glad to hear you got one of those welders. I think that accompanied with one of those $15 four and a half inch cutter/grinders is essential in a garage. It's going to save you thousands in the future. Just this kind of stuff. Again that present was cheaper than one trip to your muffler guy. Let alone any friend that may need a little mending or something else you want to do in the future. Again a little practice and maybe watch a couple stupid YouTube videos or something it's not difficult.
