Yeah. It’s rather tall, somehow makes it look more like I actually know what I’m doing.

 

I started w a 40 mixed for mig then went to a 60. It lasts a long ass time for me at 25cfm mig welding. Like months. But, the argon for tig is a diff story. You burn through that shit in a day.

 

Yeah I usually run it at 20 or 21, so this should be a good long run. Quite happy for only $83.


How much is a bottle of argon? Been wanting to get into tig but waiting till I’ve got some projects done.

 

20-25 seems the same to me w mig.

Tig is a diff story. I have two 120lb argon bottles. One always filled and ready cause w backpurging it burns through it in like a night. I would like to run at 30 cfm with 15 cfm backpurge but I would go through a 120 in 8-10 big joints.

I think its 70 from the expensive place that is open on sat and the cheap place i think was 52 for the 120.

You should def do some tig. Its such hype that it is hard. Mig is 4x harder to perfect imo. Watch a few vids and you'll be good.

 

@Tour991

Just got here; man Biscuit gets car sick like a MF'er

 

Glad you made it safe. Sorry about your dog. How do they like the cold.

 

I'm picturing Biscuit wearing a little dog puff jacket lol

 

@Empty_Lord you didn't tell us about your side gig

 

Thanks! It's stupid clear on the roads yet people still drive like idiots

And Biscuit just isn't used to long ass rides so no biggie. Bet she's going to hate the cold. I know Bronx doesn't like it having a bad back and all.

 

Yeah people forget how to drive on 50. They go into vacation mode where nothing else matters but then.

 

ugh

 

There's a fat boy that walked by me; this guy's wife took off into the hotel lobby while her husband and I just watched it walk by us.

Apparently a bear lives near this hotel and it gathers food from the nearby garbage cans overfill.

 

Are you in the area I told you about? There is a lot of trash pandas around over there.

 

I read these as though they were two different scenarios, one about some poor fat kid and another about a bear

 

Same I was slightly confused at first.

 

was like damn, some of us were husky as kids this is kind of brutal

 

Yep!

Again it was a FAT one, but it just walked on by ignoring us. Typical black bears.

I'll shoot you a text in a bit.
