    what scooter should i get my son, help appreciated

    Madd Gears are heavy, even for older riders. You're better off not getting one. Also, if you live near a BMX shop, you could go and get any 1-1/8" BMX headset and get it pressed into the deck. Stock headsets that come with scooters are usually pretty slow.

    what scooter should i get my son, help appreciated

    Here's where things start to get pricy.. Modifications. It'd be smart to start your son off with something lightweight: Razor Ultra Pro, Blunt Complete Scooter, or a District Complete Scooter. Wheels: http://www.doggscooters.com/uk/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=17_44&products_id=954...

    welding

    You're correct. Although, When someone refers to ARC welding, they generally mean stick welding. Fluxcore is mig, only gasless, if I'm not mistaken. I'm not going to go completely in-depth on a scooter forum. He's going to be taking a basic introductory welding class, not years of majoring in...

    camera?

    Canon HF M400 Canon HG10/20 Sanyo Fh1a Panasonic SD9 Panasonic TM700 Don't get a Sony unless it's prosumer, the consumer stuff is low quality. JVCs have horrible video. Or you could be legit and get something SD with tapes like a Sony TRV9_0 or Panny GS120/320/500.

    welding

    Stick welding would be ARC welding. This is how pipe welding is done, and Plate welding is usually done this way although sometimes it's also done with TIG. Rarely is Plate done with MIG. ARC welding can/is used for many scooter parts. If they aren't TIG welded, they're ARC'd. MIG is the...

    camera?

    M4/3 over DSLRs. Hacked Gh1s put T2is to shame.

    How do I get rid of the black line?

    That's vignetting from the fisheye, aka "vig". You probably bought some cheap ass lens, or your sensors are misaligned. Turn off image stabilization and just zoom in a little bit.

    welding

    You'd be doing joint welding, so fillet welding is what you want.

    Panny gs300 vs sony trv 900

    Someone told me that before, I wouldn't know since I've only used a GS320 once. I've also heard that GSs are sharper than TRVs.

    V2i question damnit

    I have a V2i and personally I'd rather have an Envy still. I rode one for a month and it's my favorite deck out there. V2is are a close second. But either way, you won't go wrong. V2is feel like crap for whips. They're the best for grinds and even really good for tiretaps. Just a lot of...

    Panny gs300 vs sony trv 900

    GS500 > GS120 > GS320 > any other GS-series. TRV if you want "VX-like" footage. Panny if you want "DVX/GL/DVC-like" footage.

    Looking For a Camera/Lens On a Budget.

    I've been looking for a cheap DVC30 for a while now, and all the ones I see for under $450 are all broken or "almost good condition." The one I'm watching right now has a broken humidity sensor and it's $230.
