Just welded my 500th inch of 3/8 plate on this tank job in Toledo

I was tallying my cut lengths today and realized I've laid down over 500 inches of weld on this single vessel. It's for a new pressure vessel at the refinery here. That's a lot of passes with the Lincoln Power MIG 256. Anyone else ever surprise themselves with how much linear weld they put down on one project?

Sounds like a good way to get carpal tunnel.

Oh great, another thing to worry about besides my actual job.

Wait, they're making you do that on top of everything else?
