The good and the really ugly on the right due to contamination from trying to retain the rustic nature of the metal.....I ground another 1/8" clearance before doing the left bead.

The fun one.......

Insert 5" of cannon fuse, 1 tablespoon fg black powder, one piece of damp paper towel, then pack the remainder with damp beach sand and stand back. :D

I'd actually buy the photo frame if I saw it in an art gallery.


Just one question…. how do you get a photo and some glass in there??



DOH!

Thanks.

You're Soooo Old School! :D

I use small neodymium magnets for these frames or a 4x6 picture will simply rest in place. Frame is sloped at 15* and it weighs about 7-8 lbs.

Nice work Sieg.

Looks like it will take more than a 100 ft of welding to
even get close to welding like you guys.. I did a bunch of arc and gas
welding years back.. been thinking about getting a tig
and start to learn again.. just too many other projects
going on

Is that why they call him Greg "Weld":)

Sieg,
The frames would be great for awards etc
Are you marketing them?? you can charge Greg
$850 each since he spends everyone elses money

I might be interested in a few

Not marketing them, considering it on a very small scale. I'm going to be making a couple more designs this week. I agree, as specialized or personalized trophies they'd be pretty cool to receive.........IMO.

Let me know what you're thinking.

What tig machine are you guys using? Anybody with a Diversion 180?

I'm using an HTP Invertig 221H. 200 amp inverter, air cooled.

My friends have names for me - none of which actually use the name my Mother gave me…


Ever hear of WELD Racing? Good - 'cause that's not me!
