Re: My newest weld pics
 

I run about 70 - 80A pusled, 75% on time, about 10hz - 50hz , 50% background current, 3/32 Trimix, 25 cfh thiner ---- I drop to 1/16 2% thor and turn my flow meter to 35 cfh so I can cool faster. Run shorter passes other wise you get massive warping and contraction of the work piece. Looks pretty good though. I get to see how good mine are this week its been awhile

Re: My newest weld pics

Re: My newest weld pics
 

That gives me a chubby. Excellent work as always man. :y

Re: My newest weld pics
 

Looks good on the outside... but why no bevel or gap? It's hard to get smooth penetration without it.

Re: My newest weld pics
 

the only joints that were like that were right there at the collector, because I knew I was going to have to refit them anyways after welding (the pipes move like 1/4" around when you weld them off the manifold)

I not a total newb to this stuff man ;)

Re: My newest weld pics
 

Damn you are a consistant welder! I wish i could be 1/2 as consistant as you.. here is my shot at it

Re: My newest weld pics
 

Those are pretty good just work on your restarts.

Re: My newest weld pics
 

what machine is that...?

Re: My newest weld pics
 

I run the millery syncrowave 180sd (like 3 years old now but stick kickin butt lol)
I have a savings accnt that I am tossing 10% of all my profits into for a millery dynasty 300dx with full tig runner and water cooler (nearly 8000$ price tag yikes)
Hope to have that welder in a couple more months

Re: My newest weld pics
 

Ignore my ignorance but Is there any turbo hangers going on? I've seen some turbo manifolds that have braces going to the engine side flange, and turbo to the block...

---- looks wicked though, nice welds. Are you a ticketed welder?

Re: My newest weld pics
 

with welds like that its probably not needed to have hangers... or braces

Re: My newest weld pics
 

i was kinda curious about braces for the fact of head studs holding in the aluminum... not really for the welds safety.

and bmc, ya did it again, DAMN!

Re: My newest weld pics
 

Nope I dont have any certs or anything but that is cause I am to lazy to go and take the tests for them lol
I know I could pass the tests, just no time to

I brace 16 gauge tubular setups but this thick sch 10 (1/8" wall thickness) isn't necessary

Re: My newest weld pics
 

james hurry up and get my topmount done =D

Re: My newest weld pics
 

Right on. I'm a 2nd year welder right now. I don't touch much tig seeing how we build service rigs from the ground up. All structural is Stick and Flux core. Then the rest is mig for ease and quickness.

I plan on branching off and doing my own thing after running my own truck. BUT back on topic. Your shits clean!

Re: My newest weld pics
 

In a couple months, you will probably be limited to used ones. They have stopped producing the 300's, and are going to the 350 Dynasty now.

I'd reccomend getting a used one, or maybe a Dynasty 200.

Re: My newest weld pics
