Weld actually can weld

Thank you... but really -- this is just barely getting by in my book. It's just hard to do "occasionally". You have to have such a steady hand and such a steady feed of the fill to really make 'em smokin'. I don't have either of those skills. And like I said earlier -- I rarely post up what I'm doing. It's just not interesting. But it's fun for me! Beats working for a living that's for sure!

Great work Greg.
Better than what I can do for sure. Practice, practice.

Fresh,

Good to see you were able to honor an offer... or was it offer your honor? Either way - hope the sale of that dynamite Camaro with the 24's is going well for you.

Love to see you at the beach dude!

I'm staying at the Ramada...they have trailer parking in the lot they own across the street. We'll be there with my '32, along with my buddy and his "great 8" '32, and my brother in law/sister should have the '69 there if I can manage to get it completed enough by then (keep your fingers crossed). Rodger is thinking about joining the parade of dirt bags as well.... so with you two - I'd have plenty of "protection". One in front and one in back... nobody would mess with "the short guy"!

I use my tig 1 to 2 times a year and every time I need some practice before I start.

But I really suck at it

Yep! It's real hard to be a "sumtimer" and be as capable as someone doing it day in and day out. I've been welding since I was 16.... which is some 42 years... but just because I can stick two pieces of metal together - doesn't make me a 'welder'. No different than having a big horsey power car makes someone a driver. Or a new golf club makes you a golfer. Doesn't make it any less fun though!

EEEEEEEEEEEEHHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
