    Looks good to me! I don't like to weld stainless much but I haven't gotten to try with TIG yet

    He was so annoyed by the squeaking he asked me to look into converting them. This is a '93 Civic.

    Completely stock, it's a rare sight. He turned down $6k for it.

    I sold my arc welder. All I have left is the miller pocket tig and my plasma cutter
    I’ve got a miller that I’m trying to get parts for that’ll do high freq so I can do aluminum.

    Tonneau or truck cap on the tundra... torn. Tonneau is a lot cheaper... cap gives me enough room to live in it comfortably

    I haven't played with our fancy TIG welders. We have some neato huge Hobart ones and a few Miller InverTIGs. I mostly use a huge 80s Miller 350a, Lincoln SP-175, and occasionally a Linde 650a with some monster dual shield. The guy next to me used a Miller DeltaWeld with separate spool carriage and huge dual shield to lay 1" beads on huge 3" thick 36"dia spools for cables.

    Man I know this is stupid as hell but is there anyone got something Jerry rigged up to keep their ditch light cables from not getting smashed by the brackets/hood. I’ve smashed the shot outta mine and scared to turn them on now :anonymous:
