I recently Acquired a Miller Dialarc HF-P Tig/Stick & Miller Regency 200 CC/CV with Aluminum Spool gun, The first Project i am Doing with it is a rake that will clamp on to the edge of an excavator bucket for spreading mulch.
So Far i have tacked the bottom and top lengths of angle together and tacked on 8" with 6" stick out pieces of 1" Rebar for the Tines, i still have to weld on some gussets behind the tines and attach some chain to hold it to the bucket.
Heres some Pictures of what i have so Far.
First is the 2 pieces of Angle tacked together

Second is with the Rebar tines sitting in place to finalize placement
