Comments
ive seen a lot of welding robots and all of them couldnt keep a straight weld for long and eventually would weld out of the area that needed welding, and when i mean WELDING i trully mean WELDING and not spot welds like you see in cars or shitty welds that you see in cars, i mean structural welds and many other things.
But he is a mobile welder doing odd jobs no
