I though that you could only get CWB certification for the process that you are working on? For an employer. Its the process you learn while working for a period of time and then the employer gets you the certification for that process? Is that wrong? I have been a bit confused by that. Its how the ...

Very interesting guys thanks for all the input. I had no idea that it was so common. I look forward to seeing the pics.

I would have to get a lot better than I am now to do that.

I always unhook the battery on a vehicle I am welding on. Why take a chance at burning out the boards in the car? Its a simple thing to do. Why not prevent damage. Seams pretty stupid not too.

Will this cause any problems? I know that if I used it in a much higher range that it could over heat the circuit. I don't turn it up over 50% of its capacity and I haven't had any problems with the welds, I suppose the breakers would pop if I was over loading the circuit right? The feed from the ho...

Ouch I can feel that, Never done that but I can feel that.

Never ever ever put a tank of any kind across the forks of a lift. If it ever got hit or rolled off bang the explosion would take an entire building out.

Saw a guy dong that in a huge warehouse we were renovating. Guys could hear me yelling at me from the other side of the building.

Fusion welding only with tig?

No filler of wire? What would they be welding that would not require a filler material to be used?

I registered to it but they want you to go to 2 seminars and say you can go to 2 for 199 but charge you 119 for each one of the ones I would want. Sorry I would like to go but can't at that price.

Acetylene welding is an art form to me too. Very akin to tig welding. I used to do that all the time in high school and haven't done it since. I have not tried it with propane have any of you? I need to get an oxygen tank and I will try it. I have all the torches and it would be interesting to try.

That is cool man. Very cool.

Nice work indeed. Those are some sharp welds. I am good but not that good. Kudos

Yup working great now thanks. Happy to help.

Great thread I bend the rod in the holder just to get an angle for a proper weld. I wouldn't have thought to actually put a curve in the rod to get to the back of a weld project. That is cool. I will have to give that a try.

It shows a company called bluehost. Hope that helps you out.

No I hit the video page button on the top of the forum page. It goes to a hosting page.

It goes to a blue page on me and I cant get the tips and tricks video page to work either. It goes to one of those fake sites. Was Jodi hacked?

True I will keep that in mind.

Ok call me a dolt, I can do the chain through the bottom and the top and remove the handle. Thanks for the wake up.

In the words of the great Homer Simpson, DOH!

I have a 100 pound propane tank and you can't store it inside. Against the law. People break into cages to steel metal and batteries to recycle. Happened to the garage on the corner. He had a steel cage with expanded metal grating. They cut through the grating and stole all his old batteries. I want...

Yes it does. Thank you. Been a while see a few changes. Good changes. Forum looks a lot nicer. I have still been eagerly waiting for Jody's vids and bought his 2012 set. Lots of good stuff there.

Just wondering if anyone knows of a chart for the settings needed for various thickness of metal for a lincoln mig 180 welder? We are having a few little problems dialing in the machine. I have no problem with thicker metals but sheet metal and thinner metal just can't seem to get it dialed in for t...

Your welcome glad it helped you out.

Wow how long before this thread wins the longest in the forum contest guys?
