Had to weld up 200 of these on Friday. Was a good challenge. The material was .070 5052 and the hole was only .090 away from the edge of the hole and customer didn't want the hole to be distorted.

I am using a dynasty 350. It is a part of this larger assembly we do for this company. Not sure it's exact use.

Thank you! Not sure it's on the same level as your work! Love seeing your bike frames!

I believe that means that he has a machine which will allow you to set differeng amperages for the positive and negative sides of the ac waveform. Jody showed one of those machines in a video recently.

This is correct. The dynasty 350 allows you to independently change the en and ep sides of the actual wave form and change the balance all independently. Those were the setting for the little part. The other part I set the machine at like 350 en 250 ep 70 percent balance and 250 hz, that's normally how I do mostly aluminumunless it's really thin or dirty. I don't max out the pedal, I like to feather it
