Shop Time w/T.W. Friends.

There's 2 pieces in the 4 jaw
Hint;

 

Anti-spin jed clamp-it device

 

I see the line now that you said that

 

That piece is bored out 3 thousandths of an inch over the tube diameter. I think 2 strip of 2" wide blue masking tape for no scratches and it should hold tight.
A little concerned if his vise will open 4 inches, but have a idea around that.

 

Clamp for a barrel?

 

Fork tube so kind of.
I like when I have shop jobs like this because it makes the day fly by.
I have two hole to drill and tap for tool #2 today. Looks something like this

 

Not sure what movie this was but it looks right up my alley

 

Thor 2 I think. Forget the whole title off hand

 

Tig welding sometimes is like using a pair of vice grips, you need 3 hands. I tried welding this first nut on but need to regrind the tungsten and haven’t. Couldn’t get it to stick without filler rod. Second one repositioned the part, used filler rod and it came right out.

 

I'm rather curious why you tig welded that. We always reach for the mig welder when attaching nuts to things.

 

I usually do, this was stainless and the large piece around it is rubber. Didn't want the sparks getting into that

My coworker already charred part of it with the butane torch

 

Ah, couldn't tell it was stainless at a glance. That makes much more sense now!

 

I've welded stainless with the mig welder, it just rust where you weld it

 

Throw some nirod at it

 

I thought it was The Avengers. They all start to blend together after a while.

 

I just noticed I can’t use cardboard anymore. I am so screwed

 

Do you have any idea what that part is used for??

Why is the middle part on the table different??

 

I was wondering why the middle one was different too, good eye!
