Would have preferred to use GTAW on several of these projects instead of GMAW, especially on the ones with no access to the back side. One conclusion I came to on the subject is that if I do anymore patch welding, I’ll only be using 18GA...

Just a few random photos from the body shop. Some are the stuff that nightmares are made from. 😂

Timely...

45 47 kicking in 🥃

What say the brain trust, MIG (GMAW), TIG (GTAW), Stick Welding (SMAW) “obviously with puddle control” or do we look and some of the new techniques of bonding? Are the Pig bodies made from a harder version of low carbon steel? Do we need to...

I’ve heard of 6010, but can honestly say I’ve never used it. One of the reasons 6011 is so popular in my industry is that it doesn’t require a lot of prep. Very popular for field work.

Solid advice. when in doubt the gas station boner pills are always the answer!

Was facing the same decision after a bottle of Stags Leap cab. Wife helped me out by putting a fudge brownie sundae in front of me.

Yeah, maybe it has. Didn’t use 6010. I said 6011.

A friend I worked with for a couple years showed me a technique when stick welding some thicker materials, where you make a root pass with 6011, grind off the slag and top of the bead, then proceed to lay down the succeeding beads of fill with...

Oh YES!😃🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 For the frens only!🐸🐸🐸

What are we drinking tonight? I just polished off a bottle of wine and was deciding if I should go to bed or work on finishing off this bottle of Whistlepig…

Bring it... Nobody has called me names or blocked me in like 27.5 hours... I also watch Wray, he is a crafty old guy that has a lot of practical advice I really like he's about getting the job done reasonably low buck by making the tools or...

That guy is just across the river from us here in the Valley, have not met him but did see a bunch of his handiwork at a car show last summer 👍🏻

When I finally get the 69 back to swap to the 76 chassis Delancy built I’ve definitely got concerns how best to deal with the hood. Wish louvers would solve clearance problem.

Those along with AZ heat, stoplight traffic, Dutch Bros drive thru’s

I admittedly know nothing about this subject but in 10 minutes of reading it seems that would be the worst place to put them; although IMHO they would look best there. It also seems, again from 10 minutes of "research", that they don't help much...

BTW, just uploaded an updated engine start and run video. The tuner (Michael) came over and worked out a kink in the programming maybe 2 weeks or so before the river trip. 👌🏼

I ran an LS engine on my pig and just removed a few of the cross bars to reduce restriction and never felt like I needed more air flow. Kind of tell form this angle..

Forgot to add NOT GOOD AT FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS anymore 🤔🧐😲😳😮🤣🤣🤣
