The lift business is slow till spring time, so it gives me time to practice my welding on fun stuff......I made up a bunch of these to give to LWS so they can see my aluminum cans......and it ALWAYS  makes good conversation with their customers.....Last edited by B_C; 01-18-2014 at 08:36 PM.  Miller Dynasty 350Twenty Six HammersThree Crow BarsBig Rock
Reply:I have noticed that some cans weld better than others...You gotta get the clear coating off and I like washing the insides out and drying on the stove with a frying pan till the water boils out....I punch a hole in the bottomalso so it wont out gas at the end of the weld......My buddy has a laser welding business and I have to get a pic of his can welding.....Its insane  Miller Dynasty 350Twenty Six HammersThree Crow BarsBig Rock
