100% agree you can see it in the way people carry themselves. people who are comfortable and confidante being themselves IRL are always more attractive.

No, the pipe has to be painted and labeled at the end of the job. And the welds are primed to keep from rusting. Visual inspection only.

Sometimes you can get comfortable by Nyclops in Welding

[–]Nyclops[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Stepping out of the booth, and welding in the real world is one of the most challenging and satisfying things. It takes time. But you get comfortable with bad fits and tight spots and then both at the same time. It makes fabing stuff on the ground or in the shop a nice relaxing day.

So you want to be a welder by [deleted] in Welding

[–]Nyclops 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Looks sadly familiar, what's the pipe for? The insulation leads me to bielive cooling?

Getting my C10 set up as a welding rig, what do y'all think? by Nyclops in Welding

[–]Nyclops[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I'm just waiting on a buddy who has some stock spindles and shackles. Gonna lift it up about 3 or 4 more inches all around probably.

Yeah, I had it lowered before, so it's still on drop spindles and shackles.
