Hey folks I have oil blow by to super charger any ideas?

 

I ordered on Saturday night at like 8:30 PM and the part was on my back door at 11:25 AM on Tuesday. They are 9 hours ahead and work on Sunday. That was the fastest delivery ever.

Meh, its broken now

 

I'm looking into taking some classes here soon (I hope) at a local welding cert school we have nearby, since I've got a couple more days off during the week I figure now's the time. If I get asked to come back full time eventually it'll be harder to get the classes in, and if I don't go back full time then I'll have learned a new trade. Seems like a win/win. Just need to convince myself to spend the money lol. Once we get back from Moab I'm going to look into it more.

 

If there's a CC or trade school the intro welding class will set you up well

I think I paid like $400 for a semester of 4 credit welding class that included consumables and oxy/acet, stick, mig, tig welding and torch cutting

 

D

do it your self

 

Yeah that's the other option I was looking into, the local community college. It is far cheaper at the community college but way less flexible on the class times. Basically just one option. Plus I don't know how the schools here are doing right now with covid, I'd have to see if they are even doing their in person classes like that.

The welding cert school I'm looking at is this one that's nearby, depending on which area you plan to pursue it's 2 - 4 classes then a cert class. About $2.5k per class though.

I did a weekend SMAW course there last summer, the guy that runs it is really cool and it sounds legit. Just not cheap

 

Rebuild it and pay someone to tune it

 

@BartMaster1234 I hate you lol. I remember you have some retro games and now I got a ps3 and ps2 added to my collection

 

It's our crowning achievement. We got our own header lol

 

Well then get good


You can do a lot with SMAW but it takes skill to tackle anything thin with it

 

Learn to stick weld first, it helps a lot. Plus you will know how to do trail repairs with battery's, jumper cables and electrodes. My friend who taught me how to weld wouldn't even let me look at the MIG machine until I knew how to stick weld, it helped a ton on how to read puddles.
