Re: 4043 vs. 4943
I agree completely. All I was suggesting was that we choose our jokes carefully. It's an area where I catch myself being competitive, and I have to police myself carefully to not put up something that could sound racist or otherwise potentially offensive to any of our members. Sometimes, alcohol ha...

Re: Affordable welder worth it?
Sooooo...I almost pulled the trigger on Eastwoods 250 amp tig welder but I rarely tig anything that thick to use that many amps. I would trust Eastwood. Eastwood doesn't sell a 250A "dedicated" tig welder under their brand name. Might wanna go easy on the booze :lol: They have the multi-p...

Re: 4043 vs. 4943
We probably should be a little more restrained on these jokes. As fun as they are, we have new members every day, and I'd hate for us to be misunderstood before they get to know us.

Re: Affordable welder worth it?
I've been looking around for multiprocess machines and found out about these really cheap Eastwoods that come with about everything for under $650 brand new.

Turn your balance setting up more toward penetration instead of cleaning.

Hard to tell but that looks more like an air pocket in the casting rather than a missing piece.

Re: Help a dumb Noob! Did I burn my eyes?
I'm enjoying a cold barley-pop as I type this. Rocketsurgeon's experience with NASA is mostly in friction-stir welding. He's as green as the next guy in the processes we use, though he has some solid education behind him. It'd suck to pick up a claw hammer, when you're used to a 3# cross-peen f#@&a...

Re: Best way to weld SS to prevent crevice corrosion??
I would use 316 throughout, and an over-alloyed (fully austinitic) filler. Eliminating ferrite in the weld will go a long way to stopping crevice corrosion. Here's a quote from a discussion I had recently with a welding engineer, "Examples of filler metals which solidify austenitically are AXT...

Re: Best way to weld SS to prevent crevice corrosion??
The rudder is a 1974 on a 1974 boat. I have owned the boat for 20 years. As far as I know, the rudder was not rebuilt before I owned it, but I cant be sure. There are many other boats of the same model and year and some owners have rebuilt theirs. Many just scrape out the old foam and dont really e...
