Ah, the pics! What's with the bubblegum in pic 5? Are your arms all
UVed tonight? I saw bare armed welding in there. tsk tsk tsk
Hey! What's that _green_ stuff in front of your house? It wasn't
there in July.

Zero pics, dude.


Now Ive got to get a good battery, clean up all the wiring
(carefully..its 70 yrs old), repaint etc etc...G

I LIKE this welder. I burned probably a pound of rod today farting
around, overhead, vertical up, down, sideways etc etc....marvelous what
this machine can do. Its got a far cleaner and easier arc to work with
than any of my other stick welders, Ranger 9, ArcoDialarc 250 etc etc.

Muahahahaha!!!

Congrats.


Now if I ever get the Miller 55G back from the guy who is slowly
rebuilding it.....

You'll what, use it or sell it?

Thats rather odd. I had two sections with the Hobart welder pics. One
of them seems to have flown the coop.

As for the green stuff...thats what we have in winter time.. In summer
time..it all dies and stays brown until late fall. Of course..that
105-115F tends to have something to do with it. One can..can run
sprinklers at night..but the soil here is poor..tends towards sandy clay
here in the high desert....so I irrigate the grapes, the trees and let
the spring grass die out in the cactus gardens.

In the picture from the back of the welder..one can see my old black
Mazda/Ranger and one of the Wells-Cargo containers in my side lot..and
Im going to have to attack it with the weed wacker this weekend..its
grown about 2' tall and in just a couple months..it will be 24" of
FLAMMABLE dead and dried grass.. The orange boat is my 85 AMF Force 5
sail boat. Ive got a Hobie 16 tucked away in the side yard and the 22'
Ensenada is out at a friends ranch.

I dont know yet. Ive got 3 gasoline powered welders now...the Miller is
being rebuilt..but it and the Ranger 9 are MIG compatable...though Ive
got a Cobra "Brute" wire feeder I could stick on any of the three. Water
cooled mig feederr..with a 400 amp torch...G Been using it for
Aluminum on one of the old Miller35s Ive got in the welding shop.

The old Hobart so far has cost me $69. $60 for a pair of 16" used
tires, mounted and $9 for gasoline...oh...and $1.50 for the car wash

Hell..I could donate it to the oil museum
http://www.westkern-oilmuseum.org/

And visit it every day..pull it in the Oildorado parades this year with
one of the Dart or White trucks they have restoredG

Though to be fair..this welder was said to have come off a Liberty ship
and was made before 1945 according to Hobart

"First Law of Leftist Debate
The more you present a leftist with factual evidence
that is counter to his preconceived world view and the
more difficult it becomes for him to refute it without
losing face the chance of him calling you a racist, bigot,
homophobe approaches infinity.

This is despite the thread you are in having not mentioned
race or sexual preference in any way that is relevant to
the subject." Grey Ghost

I thought that maybe you'd just futzed the link.

Figgered as much.

Yeah, you definitely don't want that.

When's the last time you went sailing in one?
