Call me crazy, but now that my first 914 is pretty much done, I am contemplating doing another one, maybe a six. With retirement looming, I want to (have to) do more of the work myself. Two questions to the group about tools:

1. what kind of impact wrench would you recommend, and
2. what kind of welder would you recommend?

I did some gas welding 30 years ago, and need to relearn a lot, but before buying anything I want to hear what others have used and liked.

How about it? Good, bad and ugly experiences?

Hey Tim, I have a bunch of impact drivers but I don't use them. I take every thing apart by hand and reassemble them the same way. I use a torque wrench almost everything during reassembly. I want to know that what was wrong and that it is all correct when I reassemble it.
