What welding projects are you working on? Are you proud of something you built?
How about posting some pics so other welders can get some ideas?

Goes on a Oliver 770 farm tractor.
This clutch system was installed incorrectly by the mechanic before me....
you would push the clutch halfway down and it would disengage, push it to the floor, and it would engage again....
Instated backwards, loose bolts....
A mess, but, should be back and running by the end of the week.
Enjoy.

Just a couple welders and a couple of big hammers and torches.

You do get a lot of fun work. Would be nice if people would do it right the first time.

I had to repair a clutch on an old Massey Ferguson 235. I was dragging the pasture and went to down shift before going down a steep hill and when I pushed the clutch pedal down it popped and the pedal went under the tractor and was gone. I shut the tractor down and got to looking and saw that I caught the bracket that holds the pedal to the tractor on a stump and broke it so I had to weld it back on the tractor. That was a fun drive back to the barn without a clutch.
It's always best to build your own, especially when it comes to hitches!!!
