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?
Welded a new yoke on a potato digger pto shaft.

The old u joint clamped onto the tube.
It split and ripped off.
So we got a new yoke to weld on, then installed the u joint and the thingy that slipps on the tractor.
Mig two passes all the way around. Eyeballs. Couldn't detect noticable runout to the naked eye during operation.

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

Men in dirty jeans built this country, while men in clean suits have destroyed it.

In case any city slickers are wondering what that hunk of steel is or what I even did to it, heres a video of a similar machine, in operation.

It never ceases to amaze me how often the TLAR method produces as good a result as a careful layout.

Very nice, as always.

Merry Christmas!

Thanks Steve.

IMO if you can't say Merry Christmas, or think someone else shouldn't say it, you shouldn't be in America.

Yep. That pesky 1st Amendment protects my right to say it, but offers you no protection from taking offence. Our "leaders" and the media seem to have trouble understanding that.

Here's a saying I find quite accurate.

Announcing "I'm offended", is telling the world you can't control your emotions, so someone else should do it for you.

That sounds like an accurate assessment.

Taking offence is selfish... It says, "The world should work MY way, and screw you and how you feel."
That attitude, in fact, is one of the few things that DOES offend me. Does that make me a hypocrite? :lol:
