Wow... it gets better.

and who are you again? this rick p.?

It doesn't matter who I am, probably just some noob. ;)

I hate to slam this forum since I am new here. There seems to be a lot of good info on here, but the few members that do nothing but make some lame comments along with the name calling is pretty sad. Again, lots of good information I have learned a lot on the fabrication side.

And what have you done to contribute? ---- all, your just stirring the ----.

OP, take some pictures of the welds it will be easier to see whats happening. Also in my experience auto-tint helmets are JUNK. I could never see the weld puddle using an auto-tint helmet and this was an expensive mask my buddy bought. My 50$ regular flip down helmet is junk but i can see out of it great, being able to see improved my welding like no other!(who would have thought:rolleyes:)

When it comes to welding I really don't have much to contribute. I was in this thread hoping to find something useful for I am about to do my own SS (304) exhaust build. Just pathetic when the first reply this guy gets is "no one wants to help". All because he put his e-mail address as his username.

i can feel the love in this thread
