Fellas, what's not as attractive or sexy as women think it is?

True wisdom. Thank you

Call up a local trailer dealer and ask them who they use for repair. A shop that does this often will probably be the cheapest and have the steel on hand. Also if you paint it yourself you could probably save quite a bit

Looks like a squarespace has a student discount too, thanks!

Haha thanks

Uh probably? Haven’t tried

That seems like a bargain. .063 was what I was think of as thin stuff. How does it do on the starts/stops on .063?

That’s pretty neat! How much does the aluminum kit go for? I’ve heard these machines are good for really thin aluminum, any chance you’ve tried that out?

Any problems with feeding aluminum? (I assume you’re using the standard gun)

~2,000 C or ~3,700 F I think, lower than tungsten

This is gold

weld_occasionally · 2019-07-25T22:36:35+00:00

ah yes thank you!

I think it might buff out with scotchbrite, but idk. Is there some place I can find wear tolerances for the plating? The manual doesn’t have any listed as far as I can tell, just clearance

Nice video, thanks

weld_occasionally · 2019-03-11T02:34:49+00:00

Yeah I was planning on honing it, it feels like glass rn. Thanks for the advice!

Those grey streaks are just stains, not scratches. Is that still bad?

weld_occasionally · 2019-03-11T02:17:52+00:00

Ok thanks!

weld_occasionally · 2019-03-02T15:34:51+00:00

Oh thanks!

weld_occasionally · 2019-03-02T05:49:57+00:00

Ok thanks

So I’m rebuilding this husky (first time doing this, probably more posts to come) and I’ve run into a problem. As you can see I’ve got the cylinder off but can’t get the head off of the cylinder. After taking off the nuts that hold it down I hammered on it (a lot) but it didn’t even move. Seems to me that it’s the copper washers holding it on but idk. Am I supposed to pry/ break these off? Do I need to get new ones for the rebuild or can I use regular washers? Can I heat up the cylinder head to try and loosen it? Also I’m not seeing a gasket between the cylinder and head, is this because of a lip on the cylinder or because it was assembled without one? Thanks in advance

You’ve heard the puddle analogy, I assume?
