Re: made a little stand/cradle for my car.
it surprised me that there wasn't any dirt in the welds, sense it is mild steel. i built this in about 20 min so i didn't care about warping or heating the ---- out of the caster plates.
oh and this was all 1/8th inch wall tube/pipe. using 1/16th er70s2 rod. |

If you look carefully you can see he removed the scale, this is a necessary part of welding steels, but often missed. Remember, much like paintwork, the key to making good welds is proper preparation. |

Re: made a little stand/cradle for my car.
Ack, I wasn't paying attention and somehow missed the fact that you were the guy that built it. :8
The reason YOU didn't see any "dirt" in the welds has nothing to do with the fact that it is mild steel. |
