Hello
Posted: Sun Dec 29, 2013 12:41 am
Just getting more into welding. I have had a Millermatic 130XP MIG machine for several years, but never even hooked up the gas. I have just run flux-core wire on it, and maybe used it a handful of times.
I recently purchase my first TIG/Stick machine; It is an AHP AlphaTIG 200X. I am waiting to pick up my argon, but have picked up some 3/32 7018's and have started to play with it.
I am very interested in fabrication, tracked vehicles, 4x4 & off road, firearms, renewable energy, basically anything that involves metal and welding.
I have a riding lawnmower and a 1982 BMW 320i that will be my first project vehicles. I don't care what I do with them as long as they are drivable... Even if it is only in the 4th of July parade.
My oldest son and I are also in the middle of swapping a cummins 4bt into our GMC K3500 that originally had the 6.5L turbo diesel in it.
Plenty of opportunities to use welding.
Anyway - This is just a hello post, so hello
