Your most recent welding pics

[Gamble97]

I am serious, try it. Quicker than changing torches. I used it to stick weld a tac while I held it, the put tungsten in and started my weld.

 

[Archer Fabrications]

Never would have thought... Lol and you say green tungsten is not recommended hahaahhahaha

[Archer Fabrications]

Looks like ass.

No just kidding. I dunno how you do it. Dont you run out of filler quite quickly doing beads that quick? Or do you push the puddle more than you dip?

Lookin real good mike.

Velocity stacks?

 

[Gamble97]

Lol Kyle, you are all backwards.

Mike, it looks good. What size filler is that?

 

[Archer Fabrications]

No no i am not backwards read again.

Does he loose filler fast? Dip fast
Or does he push the puddle more than he dips

I guess it just looks fast to me cause the stops and starts are really far apart and i know the 4030 rod disapears quick for me.

 

[Gamble97]

I mean using green tungsten and not knowing you can stick weld with the tig.

 

[Archer Fabrications]

Fml it's late

 

[all_motor_mike]

thanks..... i can hold my hand about 10" out from the puddle and keep steady. this was with 3/32" rod dipping and moving fast but not cramming rod by any means.


mike

I never grow tired of seeing the stuff you fab, Mike.

Which machine are you welding with these days?

 

[FIBA M - EC17PSE]

So i found this kit for the pyrex and gas saving kit, http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/370498063...eName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649 seems pretty good but expensive but you cant put a Price on something that will help soo much and i now know how merge collectors are welded as it can stick out so far! Think i am going to buy the delux kit but after i buy stuff for the car haha

 

[Archer Fabrications]

Ohhh god i might getthe complete one! Have to check my paypal balance

Damnit, i need gambles wp9 before i buy that kit.

Mike, hows about you and i get some sort of apprenticeship goin .

 

[99gst_racer]

im using a Lincoln v205

Nice, and good to hear. That is probably going to be my next welder. I'm currently running a V160 which is great for chromoly and SS, but I'm finally getting to where I need AC as well.

 

[Gamble97]

What's wrong with eastwood


Or htp

 

[99gst_racer]

What's wrong with eastwood


Or htp

My V160 has treated me well and I like welding with it. So, I'm sure I'll like the V205 even more. Just figured I'd stick to want I'm used to. Nothing wrong with others.

I have considered an Eastwood just to use on small AC jobs until I can afford a V205. The Eastwoods are just so cheap with my discount. I could use it for a while and sell it to recoup most of my money after I get the V205.

 

[Mark4g63t]

Well here goes nothing. These are my first beads. This is on a 3/32 ruler with .030" flux core wire. Voltage was set to 1 and wire speed was at 30.

I'm going to be picking up some more metal tonight to practice on. Hopefully I'll be able to make me a new fuse box bracket and some other misc. things.

 

[Archer Fabrications]

Chip off the slag then come
Back

 

[Mark4g63t]

Ok haha.

 

[Archer Fabrications]

Did you chip it off? You know your weld looks like ass only cause you have a layer of flux covering it. Lol

 

[all_motor_mike]

[Gamble97]

[CanadianTalonTC]

I just spent way too much time going back a lot of pages looking at photos and came to the conclusion that I'm going to buy a welder this winter.
