cetane > octane

 

6-methyl-1,5-heptadiene

 

Or
5-isopropyl-1-methylcyclohexene

 

looks like a brutal game of hangman

 

This is Organic Chemistry

 

Started a five session welding class last night. I'll be going to class once a week during October.

First session was on a Miller 252 MIG. Then we moved down to a Harbor Freight Flux 125 model. I quickly learned there is a BIG difference between welders.

They also had a Lincoln VRTEX 360 for practice sessions.

I have great respect for welders.

More than me twig

 

Oh gawd I hated the simulation thing

 

inspected near the cat, nothing much of concern other than bottom surface outside, inside is probably ok but need more inspection

stopped at harbor freights to ask about blasting media, if the soda stuff will work as similar as the glass bead and the guy said it should and provide with less after mess, which is good!

he wasn't sure what other use i could get out of the soda media if it does not take surface crust off
once I open the $40 bag he said i cannot return it...

 

Went red for that old school look.

 

Good stuff, I've been contemplating taking classes myself. Wondering if my GI Bill will cover it.

 

Should of done pink

 

I almost went bright green, but my truck is staying white so it'd look silly.

Bad enough other guys ask me about my truck; if I tinted my windows and had pink hubs, they'd think a chick was driving it.

 

I was in school for it before the simulators became really widespread. We just welded for 4 hours straight 2 nights a week.

 

Neon orange is cool too

 

I'll sell them to you, then you can paint them any color you want.

 

Give him a year, he'll take out a massive vehicle loan, pickup dipping, aquire more camo than a real soldier, and get a gunt so big his belt buckle bends.... Just Midwestern things.... Oh and he might decide Walmart is Jesus reincarnated

 

you need to get them rope hooks done in that color red, that would be sharp

 

I'll take a pic tomorrow but we have a huge 500amp mean bastard of a mig welder at work that one guy can lay a single 3/4" wide bead with in a single pass. We use it to joint tool stocks and them turn them in a lathe into a huge drill Chuck.

 

Bobby trips and rolls down the hill!
