Official Tennessee Thread

they don’t happen and are not as bad as the news makes they out.. I heard the latest guy was just waving a gun around on the side of I-40 and not even shooting at people.


and if you think the shooting are bad lot more people get stabbed than shot.

edit: and probably more than half the shooting are just drug deals gone bad.

 

Only crazy thing that happened in henderson any more is the bouncers at bars beat people to death lol

 

I know I know. I can't help it. You just have to know I laugh when I say things. You don't have to leave here but ........ You do have to fix your bumper . Much love son!!

 

Our news is pointless. It's only bad stuff. People being killed. That's it. Its fuckin retarded. My step dad got in a bike wreck Tuesday night and broke 5 ribs and his ankle and he went to the Med, aka downtown ER, and waited for 6 hours before a Dr could see him to give him pain medicine because right when he got there they brought in 2 shot police officers. It's just common. As sad as it sounds to say, I don't really care about someone getting killed or shot because it's not "breaking news". It's just normal, everyday news. No different then house fires and interstate construction. No one cares unless it's your family member

 

I'm already in all these threads. I've read that entire thread. Good stuff in there. I'm just better at reading and knowing I'm right before speaking then someone I know ..........

 

Jerry also owns a fab shop though. Most of the fabricators that are vendors know there shit. not trying to be an ass.... and if you ever have a chance you should pick up a couple aws welding books. I've been reading a couple for 4 months now. Plan on taking my certified welding inspector test this fall...

 

It’s all about ratings even though they say they don’t have ratings. Glad your step dad is relatively ok.

and i agree. it’s sad it happens so much, but people die everyday from all kinds of stuff. car wrecks, killing them self, stabbings. drugs, no one really cares unless it’s family or a friend.

the other day when that guy was waving the gun around on i-40 than barricaded him self in a house. at one point they thought someone els maybe or was in the house(not sure, never followed up on it really) but people keep saying just set the house on fire and blow it up with him in it. and that he should never get a court date and we should just hang him. imho everyone is going to say that till a family member or close friend dose some crime and than they are going to try and say that they are not that kinda person.

 

Didn't realize there two Jerry's haha

Which aws books do you have? Which certs do you have? Only ones I have are 045 hw vertical up, over head and horizontal. Wanna take my test for 6010 all position but we don't use stick at our fab shop

 

so you are talking about jason not jerry? jberry’s name is jason not jerry lol. kinda confusing with his user name.

 

I remember stick welding in school and passed all my bend test but never went to get certified. Then started working with mig and didn't touch a stick welder in 4-5 years and damn near forgot how to do it haha

Passing X-ray is pretty easy. Just don't get nervous like I did the first time, god I failed miserably.

 

What kind of fabricating you wanting to go into?

 

Yea the one our company does I believe anyone could pass, looking to change that once I become the cwi for them

 

That info should be in your aws book... Also when you buy the metal you can look into what all it was made of. % of carbon nickel and all that and in the aws book it will give you the info on which wire/rods you should use to increase the strength

 

Also if you want a fun challenge, with no backing plate. Try 6010 overhead vertical up laying on your back...

 

Wear plenty of clothing and possibly coveralls when I did it all I had was a long sleeve shirt and I caught fire within the first 3 inches of welding in that position, also have a good amount of scares on my chest from it...

 

I've got my 1706 and 2108 certification along with 209h and 421g

 

Either made up or Electrical... Either way no one cares

 

But u did ignore a fact. Smkytxn showed you the facts and those facts told you that your shackle mounts were too small. I've told you this before but u are hard headed

 

I'm a welding pro son. Those certs are so hard to get that you never even heard of them ......
