Not to mention what a pain in the ass that mistake can be.

For everyone's conscience. To no degree did I even notice the phrase strap on in that light. Jeff, you have a mind like a lazy Susan. You'll get back to the actual meaning of something but you have to think everything but the original meeting.

Its like a secondary work skill. Measuring, torch cutting, fitting, making horrible jokes that get people laughing...Poland308 wrote:Making pun of something like that is a common trait among 99% of all welders.

What else do you do when you have to sit around for a couple of minutes because your company only has one of the Mahoney you need and you can't do anything until you use that machine.PeteM wrote:Its like a secondary work skill.

Boring! Thats what. My wife always says that men never grow up and in some cases, like me, I agree with her. I take life one day at a time because God knows I have buried alot of my friends so I feel lucky to still be here. I just want to live til I die so you guys either have to deal with my "matter of fact" personality or not read my postsPeteM wrote:Its like a secondary work skill.

The vast majority of things that have come up in those moments can't be written on this site, or told to someone under 18 without permission from a parent, guardian, local law enforcement, and possibly the governor.Farmwelding wrote:What else do you do when you have to sit around for a couple of minutes because your company only has one of the Mahoney you need and you can't do anything until you use that machine.PeteM wrote:Its like a secondary work skill.

Even then its iffy.
Absolutely! I was working in barge hoppers for a couple of years, and in the summer it would be 110 degrees by mid morning. We had a radio to keep the crazy away, which happened to be tuned to the same station as they listen to in the office. So I came up with the bright idea to call in a request for Deep Purples "Knocking at your back door" for the lady that hands out paychecks.exnailpounder wrote:Boring! Thats what.

I wouldn't have blushed at that I probably would have been actively trying my hand at it.Not like it would be the first time I ever wanted to spawn with one of the staff. I really think people that have taken the hard road are the best people of all...that's my report!

Hah you think this is iffy! You should go back to high school. This ain't nothing. This crap is like elementary school now. It's sad but true.

Well, we moved the gas down from the bus barn and I tried it out-answer-nope. cranked it up to 29.5 volts and somewhere between 500-700 ipm and varied the 75/25 gas. Just got some really freaking hot short circuit which after two passes I almost burnt through and I have never moved that fast on 1/4" bar!

I do spray transfer with .035 wire using typically 27-28 volts and 250-280 wire speed.
You're listening for a hiss, like gas escaping, not a sizzle, like bacon frying.

yeah I talked to Jason Moser and he said the same thing. He runs like 450. That makes sense since so much wire just osuhing in doesn't have time to melt and drop as balls of molten metal.Otto Nobedder wrote:Back the wire down.
