What welding projects are you working on? Are you proud of something you built?
How about posting some pics so other welders can get some ideas?

I add highlights to my tables with it. It really is a nice effect, try it on AC and the result is bright and shiny like aluminum, again that is a very nice piece....I shouldn't have shown it to the Mrs :D

Wings are 316 stainless. Everything else is steel from a ford fender and defluxed welding rods :)

Eldon,
I'm glad somebody finally found a good use for a Ford fender.

Craig,
Mostly GM. I have owned either Pontiac or GMC with a few imports thrown in. Our company vehicles are Ford F-150's and man are they cheap inside and lack power. My truck will pull our trailer without trouble. The Ford is terrible. I have to floor it to get up hills. My brother in law bought a new Mustang and for theory I was not impressed at all.

Exnailpounder,
Yeah, it might be interesting but it would be a quick argument. Everyone knows Ford is the bottom of the barrel. ;)

Sam,
How could you?? It is a GMC SIERRA. Step above the Silverado. I would be more than happy to line up to you Sil-eighty. Might want to build that turbo set up for that KA24DE first to have a chance. 8-)
