    Got to pay to play, Greg. Since I've essentially finished all the heavy welding, my last power bill is $200 less than the comparable one for last year.

    Still cheap at the price - though I avoid firing up the 25HP air compressor if at all possible.

    Yeah, I noticed a spike in my bill after burning through a couple boxes of rods. We are switching to LED globes and really notice the savings.
