Patrick, in case it would help, I for one would gladly pay in advance if you ever decided to do this raising the Video.

Thanks for the pics by the way.

Can I send the 25$ now?

Of course I am interested.

Just start a new thread asking for interest and I'll predict LOTS of it.

That's good. Sell the rest to a scrap yard. They should give you enough for a sheet of 4X8. No paint stripping problems.

PS: Sorry Susan, I did not find a no.10 tap. But it's a big mess so I'll keep looking just in case.

Padrig

Very nice indeed!

Thanks for sharing.

Hey, stop that! People have a right to be ga...different I mean.

Very nice! That must remove steel in a hurry.

I still say sell it. It is too much trouble and you'll get much more out of the sale.

Jeff, I love your armour. Very nice.

Hal, not that is not very nice but why did you leave it rough like that. Was it because it was the prototype?

Just curious.

Pad

Padrig

Seyc, it is still worth a good amount of money. Why not sell it and with the profits you would have more than enough for sheet metal and tools on top of that?

Bitch You Man you said?

Thanks. I guess I just need to figure how much to reduce the speed by. I am at about half the wire speed now and it seems that an awful lot of wire comes out in 4-5 seconds for 1". I'll try on some scrap as you said. As for the duty cycle, I'll check. I agree that for these smaller machines, I may b...

Lord Ogier, something I dont quite understand. If I slow my welding speed without slowing wire feed, dont I get too big a weld bead?

Pad

Padrig

75% argon/25% co2 I believe it is with a trace of something else.

Pad

Padrig

Ok, I see, thanks. I will try taht and to preheat with a propane torch.

Pad

Padrig

Jurgen, any idea why higher wire speed gets more penetration. I would have thought the other way around as you must go faster with higher wire speed for fear of having too big a bead?

Pad

Padrig

Here is a pic of a weld I did on a tool base I am making. Obviously no petetration well maybe 1/32 or less. I am using a 115V Miller Mig at maximum voltage. Any idea? Will slowing wire speed help any? Is preheating required?

Thanks for sharing Guillaume.

Nice site. I would not bother with he currency exchange myself. Put prices in Canadian pesos, mostly cause you HAVE to being a Canadian site and more importantly in US$. Most people will get a good enough idea from the US$ amount. And the less work they have to do the better. If they don't have an i...

I would have called them thieves right there. Setting up the cut on an industrial shear, 30 seconds at most, cutting 1 sec, picking up the two parts 29 seconds and I am generous. So 35$ a minute or 2100$/hour. ...what do ya'll think of English Wheels? Learn the "Arm and Hammer" way first. English wh...

A5Runner, it's the 35$ to cut it in half that's the worst. They are clearly trying to take advantage of you.

Sorry if this is a repetition, I am leaving for work and dont have time to read all. I used aviation snips myself. The green ones. Tighten the blots up on then to prevent the jaws from splitting.

Any plans of coming to the local mall here in Blainville to do a demo.

Ok, I didn't think so but a guy can dream can't he.

I understand that you haven't been here long enough to know that I don't get huffed about anything.

Now you got me all confused about emoticon use.
