Very nice,Jerry Beasley in Kentucky used to make them the same way over 20 years ago.I bought a set from him all bare,then I'd get them Chrome plated here.He'd grind down the welds & did fantastic work,just like you.
I ordered more,but he soon stopped making them and everyone set I got from him,I wish I had 2 more.
Thanks for sharing this.

For a "beginner" tig welder, they look damn good. I bought a tig machine 8 years ago and got frustrated with my slow development. It's SOOO much easier to pick up the mig and pull the trigger, and I'm pretty darn good with the mig, so my tig welds are just that much more frustrating, when I can't get them "right".
