Quite a few folks on the buzz weld. I came across this quite educational video of how using chlorinated brake cleaner as a degreaser in weld prep can produce fatal phosgene gas that smells different but innocent and doesn't manifest problems till hours after exposure making it hard to diagnose. Also don't weld galvanised, forget the exact chemistry. If this was covered before, doesn't hurt to act as a reminder.
