It's called 7014.

Fillet braze.

The Chinese would have built it in a weekend.

For this: ye must sell your soul to NataS and delve deep into the pit of 6013 electrodes.
They will throw you a clean, pretty bead and do the project justice.

Intelligence detected !
He only gave you 2. Best take care of them.

Yep. As I age, I find the eye doctor to be money well spent. My insurance coverage is money even better spent, when used properly. My (and my wife's) eye Dr. is an Opthalmologist (an MD), and is the first doctor to take a real interest in my wife's other health problems, as one of them apparently c...

Had an ole buddy, Kunta Kintay( old, like said). That dude could run down the interstate WFO in an old Vista Cruiser wagon, 455, drunk, IN REVERSE , better that he could drive forward and sober. I asked: WTF Kunta ? How ? :shock: He said: " Cuzz I already dunn been thar" ( southern emphasi...

Hey 6013 is great for teaching people how to strike an arc and run a bead. That's what it's for isn't it??? It's OK for that but unlike 7014, 6013 is not a true drag rod.7014 is a better teaching tool(rod) If you hold an arc with 6013 it becomes a different critter. It IS really nice to be able to ...

Hey, Optometrists are the go to for glasses, which i was refering to, and an Opthamologist treats eye diseases with surgery. I had to google it, but there you go. Mick Kinda like having chest pains and going to a chiropractor. $50 later you have your"adjustment" but the chest pains are st...

Drop the lid and let it eat. I was away for over 20 years.
Give it 50 hours.

You building air compressor tanks now ? That's the rod ! W/ a positioner, of course.
(me hears everyone running to shop to look at tank welds on the compressors)

Get a pancake and cut the sides off.

If you'd quit beating it with a hammer the welds wouldn't break ! ;) :lol: Ummm.... What is the point of welding??? how are you going to keep the forks from moving horizontally on the bar? Doesn't look like theres anyway to lock them into place. They shouldn't move anywhere. I could drill and tap t...

Is it a conversion from a bench at Glacier NP ?

Hey, Welcome, Allow me to expand a little. Reading glasses seem like a good start, but as AK said, a visit to the optometrist is essential, to work with you and find the best corrective lenses for the task, instead of just a patch up cure. Mick OptHALMOLOGIST .phd Optometrists are glasses salesman ...

" had flux core installed". Was it running solid wire and gas before ?
If so, reverse the polarity(directions are in the door of the machine)

I'm not hating them all. If I could find some good 6013, like I see the's pics of or hear about, I might be converted.... I haven't found any yet.... ~John Look to find a Hilco supplier.You will NOT be disappointed. They make 5 types of 6013. Fantastic stuff. http://www.hilco-welding.com/products/p...

Too cold.Run it at 105-115 and shorten the "whip" A swirl is a more accurate depiction. It's not even a swirl. Pretend you have Parkinsons. It's a "jitter", nothing more. The drag and whip terminology is really BS. Drag does NOT mean drag. It means nearly zero arc length. Thousan...
