Hey Bob!

Howzit goin'? Nice to see you're still here posting.

Im sure you'll love that 4043. It goes down slick as snot. And it seems REALLY easy to get it to spray. Very little spatter and soot when the gun is dialed in.

~ENJOY~!

Thanks for the replies guys..

Ill try the 18.8/450-470.

Its funny, you'd thing that because 5356 is a harder alloy it would need more heat... but when I turn it up, it just gets worse...Am I takling this from the wrong angle?
As for 3000 series.. DOH! all that copper...

Hey all,
Thanks for looking. I am Still working on an aluminum boat I picked up a couple of years back and the latest project is railings. So far so good, but....

I was shooting 0.035" 4043 through my 30A on an MM251. ( at the specified parameters). I ran out of wire and...

Wow! 1000000+

HEY ALL!!
YMBAWI... you come back to this thread after two years to see that its still going strong... Hahahahahaaa!!!

Keep up the good works y'all!

[SignWave]

Is that what "walking the cup" is all about? You're rockin' that torch pretty good.

Nice T shirt too!!! Hahahahaaaa!! Sorry couldn't resist!

Lite'm up!

In my past experiences, there are basically four types of lighting to choose from.

HPS (high pressure sodium)
MH ( Metal Halide)
MV ( Mercury Vapor)
fluorescent

Each of these have their pros and cons.

HPS is you best...

[SignWave]

no competition

Yep,
I here ya. To my dismay I am not a ticketed welder. So the gas pipe job is and always will be yours. I am however a ticketed electrician So i can charge for the specialty work that I do in this fiel accordingly. Fortunately, I have this job making plant stands...

[SignWave]

thanks all.

Thanks for the great numbers guys. Very much appreciated. One of the first jobs of 2010 will be to fab three plant stands. I have to create some plant pot holders in the shape of pyramids. So... I will charge the cost of materials +25% and 85.00/hr for welding cutting etc....
