Re: Welding Newbie

guys,

i posted the pictures i welded in one welding forums and here is reply, only one person replied yet hehehe

i dont see much to criticize.. try some "real" rods.. 6010 or 6011 and some 7018..

i need a real rod pala hehe 7018 is not available here in bacoor, dapat pala nakabili na din ako sa binondo hehe

@jay,
baka mapadaan ka at makakuha ng 7018, pa text hehehe 😀

Re: Welding Newbie

Farmer's Rod yata common name neto sa USA. I'm not sure if this is available locally. Drag rod din yata ito.

6010 I think needs a DC Welder but have not checked back this info yet.

6011 high penetration rods available locally. I use this for root passes then cap it with our magic drag rod.

Did you post sa weldingweb.com?

Re: Welding Newbie

Kung minsan hindi lahat welding kaya kailangan din mag rivets lalo na sheet metal.

I specifically purchased this Contractor Grade rivet gun because specs say it can handle stainless steel rivets. I hope I can find these kind of rivets locally as I did not order some.

nice riveter solid..... not like other riveter na nasa local market madaling masira

Re: Welding Newbie

@jay,
i think 7018 is enough hehehe kaso kailangan talaga malinis yung materials na weweldingin not like 6013 hehe

@ryobi,
may dala akong 8 kilong bakal, pwede natin pag practican sa eb, kaso welding machine na lang kailangan 😀 hahaha

Re: Welding Newbie

what i have here is the Marson HP-2 riveter with plastic case and 4 boxes of rivets in different sizes. but i dont know if this can handle stainless steel rivets 🙂 just browse the internet and cannot find it on the specs.

Re: Welding Newbie

Those are excellent riveters. Initially I wanted a Marson too but when I was informed that the new ones are Made in Taiwan already I opted for the Stanley. What you have is a very good tool and rare now a days since it's still US built.

These Harbor Freight air riveters are also getting good feedback.

Re: Welding Newbie

I think this is the Jackson Helmet that Doc V was mentioning. The one being sold in Panda. Just like Ryobi's helmet this one also has 2 sensors.

@ Ossie

Thanks for bringing me the metals needed to fabricate an Ossie's Bender. Looks like it's all complete including the flat bar for the dowel catch. 🙂 Need only add a long pipe handle which I have here somewhere in the scrap pile at the back of the shop.
