Some of my tig welding 0.7mm 304s/s to 12mm flange!

DSC_0150_3.jpegthe switch on our 30yr old tig machiene died so I hooked up this as a interim setup to get jobs out. 10amp passageway light switch. Haha, Gold. It's still on the machiene, best switch we've ever had on it!

Man I thought you guys would have loved the welding and improvisation on the switch?
looks good!!!

Thanks it's 304 s/s to 1/2" m/s flange so pretty good. S/s to s/s always looks better. Just got a brand new Kempi tig. Love the old Hobart better. Full analouge pulse system. Just a shame it weighs about 800kg strapped it to a chep pallet with the radiator cooling tank and gas bottle, who says it's not portable?

The Hobart was connected to a 55amp 3phase plug in the old shop and would run 350amps. We only have 30amp plugs in the new shop so can only run it at about 180amps. You can carry the new Kempi on your shoulder plug it in to 15amp single phase and run 200amps. Crazy. Bombed 32 vs new 35. You know the outcome!

She should be ashamed of herself after you went to all the trouble of plugging in the toaster and boiling the water. If you do the dishes you'll be back in her good books!

Bourbon has loads of calories. The crumpets and 2 minute noodles are bad for u.

i put vegemite on the crumpets

 

the veggie goodness will cancel out any badness in the crumpets

If Vegemite is bad for u I'm a dead man, 3 crumpets loaded with the black gold for breakfast every morning!

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
