there is obviously some gun fabricators on here so after seeing a similar thread on an off road racing forum though AZ must be able to do better than those boys, so anybody who has some pics of some shit hot welding they (or someone else for that matter) has done, I for one would love to see it

in the ally mig photo, do you use pulse mode? Just looks like each "dime" has a cool spot in the centre.
What action do you use with the torch/gun? ie: cursive "e's" etc.

Pritty sure the welder isn't set up for pulse. I do circle's to get that affect (which may be cursive e's now that i think about it). Apart of my procedure is to heat the base plate to 200 degrees with a oxy, then weld straight away. I was getting too much undercut with other methods i tryed. I've been approved for this procedure by engineer.

Will have to post pictures of a supposed 'professional' workshop whom outfit the interiors of work vans, utes etc... with shelving, workbenches and the like.
The job they did on my new van, migod a chimpanzee would be disgusted at the quality of the job, the welds look like they just had a bird shit directly on the joins, then painted over it, and that's just the beginning.
