I don't know why, but I cannot see your ass as an NCO, and if you were I can see a RFC rating.

If you don't know why how could you not see,and what would the RFC rating be

Nice, Not cold or offline,but this was pulsed nothing wrong with that really except weld draw "expansion and contraction"..Most people would never notice or now the difference.

 

But good job 

[Stephen93s10 40]

What do you mean by pulsed Mike?

[mikel7829 90]

What do you mean by pulsed Mike?

By not laying the whole bead from start to finish in one pass.Stopping then starting.

[Stephen93s10 40]

The 1st and 3rd pic are one bead not pulsed, and sometimes I need to reposition myself, and check out how the weld is coming before i finish it.

[Stephen93s10 40]

And how did you know that i stopped and restarted welding? Doesnt even look like it lol.... i had to reposition myself and get comfortable

I can just tell by looking at it...Most people can not but I had no choice but to study this for a bit,and have to deal with this at least a few times a week.

[Stephen93s10 40]

Deal with what? Can you TIG weld?

[mikel7829 90]

Deal with what? Can you TIG weld?

Yes, No pro what so ever by the least bit..I can weld about every way or metal but just enough to get by 

 

I often have to weld carbon steel that is 4mm in thickness with the mig with a argon mix with wire speed 300 and voltage about 6 and have no burn throughs with a miller or Lincoln and I love me some bobcat portables   

[Stephen93s10 40]

Friend of mine has a portable bobcat welder... heard chromoly is harder to weld, can you weld it?

[mikel7829 90]

Yes I can weld about anything you throw at me..Chromoly tubing yes.. Mostly just rework from the flaws of robots from time to time..

Have you cut and acid etched the weld yet?

[Stephen93s10 40]

No, but I can do it, I've blown out welds with the carbon arc though

[///M5 2,833]

I've blown out pants with the atom bomb

[///M5 2,833]

Yeah baby. 140lb package coming Thursday.

And by tomorrow night the truck should have headers on it. Can't believe progress is actually happening.
