  Good buy at the flea market grinder. Painting the floor at your mount is in excellent idea. thank you for teaching me that. I noticed the ground cord was kind of close to your bearing race for your axle.. I hope the ground didn’t arc and pit the surface. The microphone is good. I liked it. I was amused. It was kind of like I was chilling at the shop with you working, which is what I tried to emulate. NICE 👍

  The fender I' m patching has a gas weld seam across the front that's probably older than me. I use tig and fluxcore as my main 2 types.

  It never hurts to wipe down your parts and welding wire with a clean cotton rag and acetone. Any oils can contaminate your welds.

• 
  @FlatlandRelics-lb3cu2 ай бұрын

  Appreciate the input. I will try that next time

• 
  @lithgowlights8592 ай бұрын

  I would not clean if I was using the MIG, but if I was going to TIG it then I would clean with acetone for sure. When doing critical welds on thin sheet steel using my HF start TIG, I have pre-flow set to 0.5 seconds, and post-flow set to 1 second, as this both protects and cools the weld area to avoid distortion. Also when cutting or grinding away unwanted material, I'd still be cooling every 5 seconds with compressed air and/or a cool rag to avoid distorting the panel

  Right on, thank you for the input.

• 
  @zeljkosruk57492 ай бұрын

  A mig/mag device is used for these needs, not a tig. You have big distortions and overheating of the material.

  I love the gantry crane. They are fun. Are you using the mig welder as fluxcore?

• 
  @FlatlandRelics-lb3cu3 ай бұрын

  Yes, it's Flux core. I use that for all my welding that is heavier than sheet metal. That gantry crane is great, I lift everything with it.

  Welding thin materials can be difficult. Unfortunately, I don’t know any tricks that could help other than work on a the lowest possible setting and use super thin filler rods.

  @FlatlandRelics-lb3cu3 ай бұрын

  I got some better TIG supplies and will be practicing more soon. The supplies I originally got did work well together. Wrong settings and wrong filler rod.... there will be many more patch panels soon
