Working on second table

Dear friends,

Today, I continued working on my second round table. I will make four table and just completed one table as can be seen in one of my previous posts. I use manual steel hollow bender to bend the 0.6" hollow. I gradually increased the curvature so I had to bend it many times to achieve the final result as follow.

That's one of my activities for today. Other times I did house chores and helped my mother.

I could not continue working on my table because the electricity was cut off. Now, we don't have 24 hours electricity - I think only about 5 hours in day time and about 7 hours night time.

So, it is very inconvenient on working with my welding work. It is not so alright for me to work at night on my machinery work so I think I need to find a solution. I have two choices I think - one is to buy a generator that can bear welder machine and the other is to install a battery and an inverter. The first solution is not so sustainable - it consumes fuel and now fuel prices are high. The second solution, when I enquired, is feasible and I will need at least 5 KVA low frequency inverter (3 KVA could work but I should consider 5 KVA for better and reliable performance) and a lithium battery (it is said lithium battery are better for high workload, high-ampere usage). The second solution can be expensive at first but is better for long term usage and can help reduce electricity cost also if I use a hybrid inverter with solar panels. Solar panels can be optional because I can use grid line to charge the battery.

Life can be challenging (and here costly) and it is our duty to overcome difficulties. I think, to be able to work without interruption because of electricity cut-off, I need to consider one of the above solution.
