Got to set up and flame weld a repair today. I know it wasn't on a teener but it felt so good to set up the torch and fuse some metal. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) I was wondering if anyone else found relaxation properties in welding or am I just weird that way?

I like to do a little gas welding once in a while. More especially when I'm dealing with thin metal. I don't own a TIG and I like the infinite heat control that gas offers, i.e. moving the torch handle in and out. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) When I was a kid (teenager) I helped my dad replace a drivers side rear quarter panel on a 68 mustang coupe when he was done there was very little need for any filler of any kind. He had me holding a soaked towel on either side of the welds as we went as a heat sink. While he didn't teach me to weld I got to see what really good welds looked like. I have not learned MIG or TIG yet but One day I will. |
