LOL - Before kids it used to be 3.7 grains of Bullseye, Winchester large primers, Starline brass, Winchester 230 grain ball, OAL 1.261" for 1,500 plus rounds a month, 4-5 months a year. My RCBS press is good 50 rounds in 10 minutes.

I've been watching this thread trying to learn and every time I think I'm getting it y'all throw something new in the mix!

I think I'll just jump in and try it out, now I just have to figure out how to turn the machine on!

Nice beginner machine ya got there Russ.

Experience is the best teacher........provided you're paying attention.

Not my machine, this thing is way above my pay-grade!
It's the one at my company, my boss is kind enough to let me use it and patient enough to teach me.
He's a great guy, let me drive his Bentley convertible yesterday!

He's only letting you play with that machine cause he knows how good it can shock you............don't ask me how I know.

[RussMurco]

Ya know, his sense of humor would let that happen and he'd probably take pictures!!!

Yep, always double check your tungsten.

So, I've read this entire thread and still haven't gotten better at TIG welding, what a crock.


Oh, you are supposed to practice as well? Hmm...


Anyways, I've just started TIGing with my main effort being sheet metal for body work. I'm trying to cut down on the weld finishing and warping. Any tips along those lines?

Yes --- Practice a lot and learn how to get better with a hammer and a dolly...
