Caleb,
thanks for the cudos. This has been one of the most frustrating series of welding projects in that the MIG welder is a loner. It has a personality quirk the drives me up the wall. Even in the closed shop under the best of circumstances the wire feed is not smooth, It pauses and stops in the middle of a weld making getting a good looking weld quite a challenge. I was for many years a certified welder in Florida and for a few years here in Texas.
Now the quality of the weld outside in the driveway is purely proportional to the lack of wind. But I will not let any of these circumstances stop me.
As far as the driveshaft loop goes, it will have one but I want to get the drivetrain in place first.
