Anyone ever Try Welding Plastic?

I've always thought it was pretty cool to do this, and ive watched a few videos on it on Youtube. and i Stayed at a holiday inn express last night...

Anyone ever done it? if so i wanted to know what Welder you recommend buying, im planning to attemp to fix my bumper as it is junk now anyways, so i figure i might as well try to learn on it.

this is what i am going to attemp to repair.
