Things we'll definately need
2 Welders
3/4 Grinders, one 9"
Generator - put this here although guess it could be wish list. if we want to be versitile ( i.e. not need mains power to weld) something like this would be good - 6KVA- importantly its got a Kubota water cooled engine - excellent for running on (used and cleaned) vegetable oil + we can easily modify it to be used for combined heat and power - using the engine heat for hot water (showers - nice after a day grinding) and/or space heating http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/161772603337
