Re: amazing work - prob a repost
I love welding, and I think I do OK for my little projects, but holy hell, to take it to that level is amazing. Just reading what he's talking about, I can't imagine actually being good enough at TIG to tell the difference between all the settings he mentioned.

There are 4 root style passes to build up the fillet, then one top weld that I call a cap which is what most people call a weave.
The weave is a pattern like this l/l/l/l/l/l/l/l and drop rod in at the top and the bottom.
man i got to use a dynasty 200dx the other day and it was ------- sweet, bitch screams at 250hrz.
but i dont get how you can even do multiple passes on aluminum and still keep the bead that small.
anyone know?

1 root-> as many stringer beads to fill as it takes-> cap
In the case of the picture and all the other pictures in the thread, they are 1 pass.
The exception is his fuel manifold:
That's the OP's 4 passes, and TCT's weave pass.
There's a root pass at the joint, two stringer beads at the toes, a weave pass capping it off.
OMG historic day! AFAIK this is only the second full-pen weld of any kind ever posted on HMT. bawahahahahahaha
Guy does a good job on his root getting a solid tack weld, then fusing that when he starts welding.
This thread should get four pasties and a chained bitch!
