the welds are not perfect im still a student and i had a buddy weld them up since i was busy working on a wood-stove project. trust me i do better work than this but i talked to shane and he said it was fine he wasnt worried about it. i also yelled at my buddy for screwing them up so bad (especially the one weld thats all zigzagged)

P.S. its called splatter not "dingleberries"

 

I was just using his termanolyg. LOL. Seriously bro you don't have to explain yourself to anyone, it's all good. People gonna hate no matter what.

 

I didnt realize you were a student. Oh and by the way i have been a welder for close to 13 years and diggleberries is definitly what we call that crap in the buisness. Yes its spatter not "splatter" like you named it, but every welder I know calls it dingleberries because they are nasty looking and stick everywhere....

 

we dont need his hating

 

My bad bro, won't happen again

My appologies Dimone545, I honestly shouldn't have reacted the way I did. I guess I didn't realize you didn't know he was still a student. My fault man.

Mods feel free to delight my previous post, it was uncalled for on my part.

 

dont trip skip LOL its all good bro...

 

bahah i wasnt talkin about you but i was talking to you lol



so i have been thinking about making this bumper

but i need to sell more stuff do i can pay for metal i think it will be 280 in metal (if it is the same cost that it was when i built a sheet metal stove) but its prob. higher and so far i have 158 saved up after i get the first one done i can start making them for other people

 

ok so i have 280 saved so now im designing my bumper :P should have it designed in a week or so with dimensions and what not

so then i can order the steel cut it weld it up :P

 

Do yourself a favor - don't get the person that welded up those shackles to weld your chit.
Good luck on the pre-fab of the bumper, there is lots that isn't realized at a glance. Trust me lol

& it's spatter, not dingle berries, not splatter, spatter! weld spatter!... As it is in everyones different neck of the woods, we all have our own terminollogy of it


SPATTER!! lol weld spatter.
Ask any welder what spatter is & they'll tell you. They may use words terms like dingleberries, splatter, but it's weld spatter in my view lol


hagn all, I'm off to give my pillow some head

 

its all the same and yea im not im doing it myself but hey were all just students trying to learn the trade but im mostly a TIG student not mig nor arc

Arc is a pain in the @$$ if you dont have the correct electrode for the job for example those last shackles he used a E6013 1/8 when he should have used a E7018 or E6010 oh well i made the guy new ones and im sending them out to him not a big deal my loss of money for having my bud do them but hey were just trying to learn
