Newbie with some crappy pics

admin

Pics are from my camera phone but give you an idea.  The first is a pic of a stainless steel tig weld(kind of blurry).  The other two are just an example of some of the kinds of things that I make at work.  This particular one started out with a 1/4 blank in the center cut into that shape.  I then had to use 2 pieces of 1/8" two make up the side thickness and form the shape around.  Those were built by hand just forming the pieces around as I went along.  Then welded the seem of the 2 1/8" pieces and ground the whole thing smooth.  That was just one of them, I had to make 4 of them in total that all had to match one another.

Reply:Yeah camera phone suck!  The first piece was a caster plate for a tubing fixture for Kohls department stores.  And the second and third pick were also for Kohls and was a base for another store fixture.  Those were all TIG welded, is that what you meant by what process?

Reply:Center template was laser cut out of 1/4", the 1/8" pieces I sheared up long and then formed them around by hand and then just cut of the excess and welded the seem up.
