    My cellar was a disaster area! Threw out tons of stuff.. Wasn't easy but now I can actually walk through the cellar.. I will have to weld outdoors as we have no garage..

    Nothing wrong with that at all! I prefer to weld outside with arc it produces a lot more smoke than mig flux in my opinion.
