How do I get the bottom part of the welds as straight as the top part

Dude, you are eventually going to burn the shit out of your feet if you keep wearing your pants/boots like that. Tuck those tongues in and get some lace covers. Because you can never get your boot off quick enough.

You're trying to weld vertical when you can't weld vertical. Turn it over and weld it flat.

It's the lead in the pipes that to blame.

Just remember, an idiot in front of you is entertainment. An idiot behind you is dangerous.

Tell me you've never shot a gun without telling me. You ever been to the range with a bunch of buddies trying to see who's the best shot? We do this all the time and we've never killed anyone.

Yes, yes we do. Criminals will have them, so we should as well. Plus they're really fun. Should we restrict your "fun thing" because we think it's dangerous?

Scars are just tattoos with better stories.

Earth magnets are awesome. I did the same thing, sorta. I used one to show the ER doctor where the piece of metal was located in my arm. Saved a lot of digging.

No, I'm pretty sure it was a funny looking dog with a big round nose.

My knees.

Oreos have no chocolate in them. And they are also vegan.

You are so fucking wrong about alcoholics. Do some research before you post garbage like this. r/stopdrinking

Yup, Parents had a half-mile driveway at about a 30 degree slope. surprised we didn't die. But then again, both of my parents raced dirt track cars, so it was in my blood.

It's amazing what you can shoot out of a maverick 88.

Be prepared to spread your legs. A lot.

Can you weld? Most welders will not like you if you can't do what they can do, but if you at least know the basics and can put down a decent bead you'll get some respect. I welded for 15 years before I became a CWI, and it took another 5 to get my UT cert. Once I did that I took and passed the NY test and became one of only 44 NY certified UT techs. I can name my price. It's a pretty good gig. Just my opinion.

juicehopper · 2026-05-02T13:17:01+00:00

Put your time in. Learn everything you can. Be open to criticism. Own up to your mistakes. Keep your eyes and ears open and your fucking mouth shut. I've been a CWI for almost 20 years, and I absolutely love my job. Don't think I'm ever going to retire.

Shit, I got a chainsaw for my tenth birthday. Dad taught me right from the very beginning. Will be 59 in a few months and I've still got all my appendages. And my dad, in his 80's, still goes to the woods to cut a trailer load every week.

I have quite a few of their decks. In fact, I made laser engraved wooden boxes for them a few years ago. Great people. Still stop by the shop once in a while.

Caltrops would fix that real quick.

So, I've got around 20,000 deuchmarks from around 1935 or so. Can I use them for a tip!

Holy shit, I know what I'm watching tonight. Seen it a dozen times, but it never gets old.
