What decides the choice here
House current has a ceiling
These machines run from a standard grounded outlet, which suits gate hinges, brackets, trailer tabs and farm repairs. Structural steel belongs to a shop with a heavier feed.
Thin cords starve the arc
A long household extension cord drops the line voltage and the bead goes ropey. Short and thick beats long and thin on every job.
The helmet is yours
A machine here comes with its holder and a chipping brush. The helmet, the gloves and the jacket come off your own shelf before the first arc.
Where this shelf turns up
The same piece often belongs to more than one part of the property. These are the places this shelf reaches.
Out in the yard
The fence line, the beds, the gravel drive and whatever the last storm left behind. Everything here works outside, away from an outlet.

How we think about this shelf
A broken hinge tab does not need a welding shop, a trailer and half a day. It needs twenty minutes with a small machine and an outlet by the garage door. That is the entire reason this shelf exists.
Torch heads sit here for the other half of metal work, which is heat rather than joining. Loosening a seized nut, sweating a joint, thawing a line, burning back a weed in a gravel seam. The head threads onto a camping cylinder that any hardware aisle carries, so the gas is a five dollar decision rather than a delivery.
