Yes please

 

I tried more, I can get better, but I want to use this wire for something and not just beads



got a tiny bit of undercut in 3/16s steel toward the end of the weld

Very pleased considering it's not poping a 30 amp gfci outlet running a fan as well and the fact i can run it off any generator without fear of fucking it up

This slag felt more like slag should feel like... Brittle on the other welds it felt more like thick powder

 

Bolt on Portal Axles on Ifs? I’d try it

 

Would

So apparently it is possible to get a 400hz signal, but it looks super complicated and requires an audio amplifier and signal generator. Looks like ALL avionics run on 400hz.

It's missing one of these!

 

Well I was gonna try re-capping the 300zx factory stereo.

Then I opened it.

 

Bro, look at all that thru hole soldered goodness!

You can do it! It'll be easier than trying to make your Boeing coffee pot to work

 

It amazes me how much stuff Panasonic packed into this thing... in 1984! It’s mind blowing.

I can’t even figure out how to get the circuit boards apart

 

Ah that reminds me of a YouTube series I’m watching. Dude is restoring a notchback Fiero and it’s upsetting the enthusiasts. In this episode he goes way too deep into the factory stereo.

I need to get back down to my shop and practice again. Especially now that i have a regulator for the argon

 

Gotta give that a watch.

I decided I don’t want to put an aftermarket stereo in. This just completes the 80’s aesthetic. I’m going to intercept a stereo signal at the amplifier and plumb it into a Bluetooth amplifier so I can play off my iPhone.

 

Man! That radio looks like it was made by cavemen compared to this Panasonic one which was made during the same time period. Really shows you how many light years ahead Japan was in terms of tech.

You tried flux core?

 

i need to fix the mercedes radio...

 

And listen to what, AM?

 

Nobody in there mentioned how to get the third phase.

 

They were ahead of their time. Becker Mexico AM/FM - 1953.
