Im glad to see Im not the only one with a mess on my bench. I feel like its so unprofessional to have it looking that way but its so hard to keep it clean and organized.

BTW: Twins?? Braver man than I am, I wouldnt want to do that job. Looks fantastic though, great work.

how did you weld up the space between the collector at its transition. not the flange . it would seem to be hard to get in there with a torch unless you pulled the tungsten out far but wouldnt that make the arc jump around?

clarify what you're saying ??



the collectors are welded before hand


collector to flange. tungsten is pulled out. gas turned up but i try to hit it at different angles where the torch can get it in there, pulse tig a little at a time to prevent the tungsten from hitting surrounding areas. then i try to go for a final bead.

i have already done this but it just a pain in the ***.

i was talking about the actual y collector the point when the 2 merge together. i would imagine going from side to top but for me to get the tungsen in between my arc seems to jump a bit. ill try and turn up the gas a bit and see if i can get a nicer bead.

hit it with some high pulses and make sure your tungsten is well sharpened and clean
