Some people just shouldn't be welding ...

admin

Was brought to my attention that the guys in the same complex as me have been "trying" to do what I do through facebook. A customer of mine forwarded over some pictures from their facebook page in regards of their "welding skills". Here's my facebook page that shows some of my work: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Re-Sp...4549643?ref=hlThis is their facebook page, you may have to scroll through some fan boy pictures, or go through the photo section to see the welding better.https://www.facebook.com/DisciplinedTuning?fref=ts

Reply:Yeesh.. And I thought the tack-step-tack-step thread earlier was bad.. Normally I'm pretty against bashing people hard, but these guys need to be made aware that they are absolutely not skilled enough to be working on other people's vehicles or cars, or, well, ANYTHING!
Reply:Do you guys realize that most of the douches on tv do about the same quality work? They just cover it up with bondo and paint. My wife laughs at those guys now. She knows enough about welding to know someone can't do it!Watch closely next time you see a show. He'll OCC seems to order their frames.

Reply:Joker has a good point. Some of the welds they lay down on tv suck. Trucks on spike comes to mind...
Reply:If you weld in replacement floor pans from the top and the hole at the bottom is smaller, how good do your welds have to be?  If you live in a place with no water or rust..."USMCPOP" First-born son: KIA  Iraq 1/26/05Syncrowave 250 w/ Coolmate 3Dialarc 250, Idealarc 250SP-175 +Firepower TIG 160S (gave the TA 161 STL to the son)Lincwelder AC180C (1952)Victor & Smith O/A torchesMiller spot welder

Reply:Tell me they are fawking joking.....Everyone makes a bad weld once in a weld, and I have done some work that is similar to that, the difference is that if I did something that looked like that I would re do the work and it would most certainly not be allowed to leave the building, let alone end up in facebook as a representation of my best work....The worst part is when the person who did the welding probably thinks it was great.
Reply:7A749 is right...... He removed that pic.......The weight of WWeb caused this hack to realize certain things........I look at my own welds from 12 months ago and laugh.....But I'm not claiming to be a pro......The OP has actual talent, however.......Precision TIG 185 and MP 210Bobcat 225NTCutmaster 42O/A tanks.... 2 Argon tanks...... 2 C25 TanksFacebook......
