  1. Welding is one of those things thats easy to do but hard to do right

    You're not going to have nice welds for a while, and aluminum is a whole different level.

    On "presentation" pieces like your chair bad welds will make it look like shit - regardless of the workmanship on the rest of it.

    Like aso2004 said, leave it to the pros.

    Not trying to discourage you from learning to weld tho - Its a great/functional skill to have.

     

    True that, you'll need an AC/DC GTAW welder + argon gas for welding aluminum.

    Kinda expensive, and hard to do and make the weld look nice.

  2. That's good going , the last time I was in the chair it was about ten hours and I was well and truly over the experience , the last hour felt like every stroke felt like skin ripping from my flesh .

     

    Damn!

  3. That looks like the lamina ones? I personally like the suede ones as they aren't as delicate as the smooth leather ones. The current ones no longer has the removable waist strap, but I kinda find that feature obsolete and more of a gimmick anyways. They retail bout 46k yen in Japan, which is lesser than $400 with the current exchange rate.

      

    Yeah, I can agree to that at some point.

    I have the all black Christo and I think it's a very unique looking piece. Looks great with the 20L.

    It actually is a Lamina, but the colour is just too cool.
