This TIG welding stuff isn't easy 🙃

I'm doing spray arc welding with 260 wire feed and 27.8 power, and I've tried slow and fast and turning up the settings, but everything I'm doing a 1/4 inch tjoint, I end up undercutting and there being empty melted areas above the weld. And advice or settings I should try? And it's a Lincoln… (edited) read more
I am so proud of my progression as a hobbyist welder in hopes to turn it into my careee!🥳🚬

Random and most won't even know what they're looking at but rather enjoyed welding this gear box to electric motor mount this morning.








I had a slight hiccup on one side of the T-joint since it's my first time doing it.





Did some Pretty Good Welds for my first time too. Not bad Travis. Not bad at all.





Anyone got some mig and tig welding tips, I just started my mig course and I've been at it for 5 days and this is what I got so far. I'll take any help

Oh yeah I'm Gettin Guuuuuud.



Just a small project, but important. For my 37 year old car I take to shows. Removing cracked bumper trim, and 2 of the 4 studs broke from the bracket. On my own to fix this. Drilled out the base metal at the old stud. Removed nuts from broken studs with heat gun. Chased threads on studs and nuts.… read more

...but they also can't afford to lay you off...
Earlier this year, I took the Washington Association of Building Officials (WABO) test in 6G TIG, one of the hardest ones to take, and I passed! I’m a certified welder because of that!

What I learned: 1. The Vertical Mill is Very Fun. A tool that can make a level area in a short time is always good. 2. Alternate joint design is cool to work with, a dual bevel t joint was my test subject today, it went awesom 3. Older machines are better than newer machines; speaking on SMAW… read more

Just used cyano-acrylic 10sec glue to put broken part together, then made metal reinforcements with metal wavy staples and plastic welding gun, smoothed out surface, filled critical places with hot glue and used structural bumper spray paint. Voila!

My Triumph GT6 Mk2 came back from being painted today. I spent last year doing the welding, and the car has been off the road since 1983! Lots of work to do, but the end is in sight.
