Welding Tips and Tricks

Hello guys and girls Revocide here from Down Under

After seeing Jody on youtube I though i'd pop over to the forum and see whats happening.

Occasionally I use a 240V 15A Multiprocess machine (BOC Smootharc multiprocess 175), I use flux core on it exclusively as I work outdooors welding up 25mm square tube.

No official quals, just a passion for it.

Australia - the only thing more deadly than our bitey stingy things is our drivers

Welcome Rev.

I deal now and then with the Hampdon Welding folks who are also sandgropers. Decent people.

Hope you enjoy your time here and learn a lot - I sure do.

Sandgropers, crow eaters, the big v. Those were the days. Welcome along.

Poland -

Sandgroper = West Australian

Croweaters = South Australians.

I have no idea why. It's something that's been around since well before I was born. Australia is certainly not without its quirks. And don't even get me started about the Dropbears.


Kym

Ok. It makes perfect sense now!

No it doesn't I lied

Hey, it's Australia. It's not about making sense, that's for sure.

God's own country = Queensland

Banana Benders--Queenslanders

We also straightenem

Unlike New South Welshmen, who do other things with them.

I've been known to peal a few after I've climbed down out of my tree.

Revocide welcome to the forum! It's always nice to see another from downunder.


Poland,

We Aussies are a funny bunch; but then again living on an island will do that to you.. You should come for a visit. We have the worlds deadliest snakes, spiders, sharks, jellyfish, crocodiles and birds and yet they call us "The Lucky Country"

I'd love to take my family down there some day. Maybe !

Josh, come on down!

Thanks guys for the welcomes

Looks like there is plenty to learn here, if I keep me eyes open and brain in gear all should be well.

Seems Victorians get called Mexicans and the Northern Territorians are labelled croc bait? maybe the tourists?

Revo

Oh yer. even the chinese restaurants in victoria got nachoes on their menus.

Unfortunately we miss out on the siestas, tequila and nice weather. Not too many drug cartels though (that the general public have to worry about)
