an idea for a welding combo

[lazerus]

I got this idea when I saw an ad for an arc welder powered by a Perkins 40 hp diesel.You can see where I'm going cant you?
Combine it say say the attached shown and I have a motor for my boat when I'm done and a portable welder for repairs.
Im nowhere near this point yet and I know Id need a lot more in the way of equipment.
I am curious though if I have got the right Idea for basic the requirements.
