Reply:Is this just tig??? Or do we get bonus points for using archaic little machines that THINK they are big welders?
Reply:Sounds like a winner, Zap.  But, I am guessing that this is not a straight-up welding competition like the stick and mig comp threads.  This is just a "what can you do with what you got" kinda thing...Right?...sorta like, a fellow might have an ac225, but used it to build a brinks armored car.Speaking of skill, I saw something the other day on ebay that almost made me laugh outloud.http://cgi.ebay.com/Wood-burning-sto...QQcmdZViewItemAlthough I am sure this thing was done VERY well, but talk about overkill on skill.Last edited by smithboy; 07-16-2006 at 11:39 AM.Smithboy...if it ain't broke, you ain't tryin'.
Reply:this is NOT a welding contest by any means...just show the beads and the machine..tell the settings...lets see welds from fluxcore to gas mig to tig to stick..hell all i'm using now is a lincoln "idealarc" made in the early '60'sstick stick stick stick stick..i'm stuck  but not for long...the gas mixer got shipped last wed. ... maybe this should be a "stickey" thread..i dunno   ...zap!I am not completely insane..Some parts are missing Professional Driver on a closed course....Do not attempt.Just because I'm a  dumbass don't mean that you can be too.So DON'T try any of this **** l do at home.
