Re: German Armor repair
well i guess gas would be used more in the field because not depending on a electrical source. i would imagine they would use ark in the factory's because it makes a deeper weld for the thick armor they used and im sure they had the technology to do ark welding so why wouldn't they. im guessing tho. nice pic tho good find

Well, it might just be what the modeler had on hand...a figure with an arc welder. Royal Model.
