    Got a tip for you, don't peek at the tracking information. That will give away the date of arrival and part of the surprise. LOL

    Don't laugh about the welder covers! The topic of welder covers has come up at least a couple of times in the past 6 months and if you make some up for yourself, you WILL get the attention of some of the other members.

    Again, welcome to the forum and hope to hear about the projects you create.
    Is it OK to want to break something just so that you can weld it back together?

    Too late, I peeked at the tracking number a week ago. The problem is it was suppose to arrive Monday (according to the tracking number), then Everlast said they would ship out early this week, yet my tracking number says that the package is still in San Francisco as it was last Friday. If I hadn't paid for shipping already, I probably would have driven down there and picked it up myself! It's only an hour and a half to drive from here! Patience has never been my strong point! I do feel a lot better after venting though!

    Tracking numbers can be funny that way. Do a little meditation and watch welding.tv to get prepped for the big arrival. You know, if you make some green welder covers, you might be able to do some brisk business on this forum! Give you something to do while you wait for that UPS guy to pull up. Take care.
