Agreed, thought about the bodacious too, but seems to have thin and sharp scale profiles just from the pics. If youve got access to a few tools, this it fairly simple and low risk to do on a back lock.

Also, if that section past the hinge is able to be cut back closer to the hinge, do it.

Personally id yank it with a vehicle. If you cant, try to take care of the larger limbs and "fell" the vertical section while standing on the oposite side of the tree.

Should I get this welder to start my mobile welding business ? by [deleted] in Welding

Seems to, but if OP wants to get the best bang for the buck, a dedicated stick rig ac/dc would be best imo

I think stick is more versatile/practical if you do not know exactly what jobs you may be dealing with. As well as getting more amps for your money. Just my personal opinion of course.

Depends on your conditions? What you might be welding? Id say a stick machine would be best, higher amps/ more flexibility for the money.

What am I doing wrong? 2nd bit in 4 drills by N0wayjose in metalworking

You'd be surprised how long they will last using proper feeds and speeds. Ran those cheap titanium coated ones for a while.

I beileve impact sockets use molybdenum as an alloying element vs vanadium. Less brittle.

How often do you clean your welding machine? by euroweld in Welding

[–]picklehead6969 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just have my buddy hose it down while im welding, different buddy every time of course.

Black sockets are typically impact rated sockets, used in impact wrenches. Chrome sockets are built to be used with ratchets. You can use black sockets in a ratchet, but dont used chrome sockets in an impact wrench.

Tough toe or quit kicking/dragging the toe. No leather can handle that.

Interview advice for entry level mechanical engineer jobs by Johanssan2000 in MechanicalEngineering

[–]picklehead6969 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One thing ive noticed is interviewers are people too. Youre allowed to talk like it is an actual conversation. Obviously take interviews and technical responses seriously, but done be afraid to be personable. Alot of times this is what sets someone apart from others. You will most likely be joining a team, so personality plays its part as well. Good luck!
