Sorry to re-up an old thread, but here's some inspiration for those that thing they are bad welders too. =)
Here's me filling the side-marker lights and antenna hole... Practice makes perfect... (Not that I'm perfect...but getting MUCH better!)

nice going there tripps, ive been doing some final touch welding lately trying to make sure everything is strong. Someone brought to my attention that welding the tops of the fenders to the cowl is going to make it crack..not sure... but the way the guy explained it sounded like he had just brazed it together.
anyway, while looking at my miller 135 welder, it explained that when running flux core wire, reversing the polarity was necessary. I looked and even my old cheapy welder had a way to reverse polarity. This makes the ground wire positive and the flux negative. I dont use flux core, i alway use solid w/ 75/25 argon. This may come in handy for someone who does though. |
