Re: welding curb rash

Re: Recent exhaust work

See the "closed threads" thread. Administrators/moderators closed several threads of people who were not paying vendors, just posting up their great fab work.

As a result, a number of the main...

Weldingweb.com in the For Sale section. Miller Aerowave, I recall. Marcella is selling the welder and posted these pics of what it could do (only with him on the torch, through :) )

Re: whats good for machining flanges flat

Cam bores can be align-bored, but as you have found, it's time-consuming and thus expensive. For most heads, good cores are less expensive than the machine work needed.

Looks like a schedule 40 with wide prep bevel. Root and cap passes, I'd guess. Pictures not good enough to tell much more.

Re: What gas lens and what size cup is best for me

I found that Airgas has better prices on lens and cups than E-Bay does. They are a large nationwide welding supply store and you may have one in your area.

You'll likely need a specific collet...

Weldcraft makes a large stubby gas lens for the 9/20 torch series that accepts 10,12, and 15 size cups. Looks like a coffee cup compared to the standard gas lens and an 8 size cup... :)

Re: ToxicFab's Fabrication pics!

Colin,
