I'd thought about that plate and collar for a few days and nights... Made sense to me.
Dropped the bundle off to the friend, and he said, "What is this stuff."
So, I drew a picture...
"um.... you need to stop by, bud."
So, I essplained meself, and he liked what he saw.
Finished product.
I love it when a plan comes together. And most especially when the customer is happy.
Thanks for stopping by the shop.
I know for sure that I didn't weld that.
ReplyDeleteThere aren't any holes, and the beads are regular.
My welding only looks like that when I make the very last weld of a repair.
{No, you can't make the last weld first. That's not the way this works!)
Nice work.
Well, the reason I had to be so specific with the instructions... is because I weld like a farmer. It's good enough, but not very pretty. And TIG is right out. I have an AHP, but I haven't been successful learning on my own.
DeleteSo, the friend is a welder. And a CWI. He's a sharp tack, no doubt.
