Tig welders.
Don't they sparkle when you forget to turn the gas on
yours, Pete
I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

Favourite practical joke is to replace the tungsten with a suitably sharpened length of 16g stainless welding rod!
Oh how we larfed
If you can keep you head, whilst all others around you are losing theirs, you are not fully aware of the situation

Best practical joke I ever pulled - filled a party balloon with oxy-acetylene, plugged the balloon with a sparkplug (electrode-end inside the
balloon), pulled off one of mates' spark plug leads & hooked it onto my own, taped the side of my spark plug/balloon contraption to the side
of his engine block, and closed the hood.
It worked spectacularly...although in retrospect, a smaller balloon would have been preferable. Blew the hood off his old Fargo pickup truck,
30' in the air. Lots of flame and noise, too. Caused some concern on the adjoining Air Force base, as I recall. Of course, I was running
rather quickly at the time...
