All caught up. Good morning men.......Yes Chris, your welding will get better the more you do......You have a nice welding machine.....more then capable of making good welds on sheet metal.....If it were me, those parts for the transmission hump, I would start over, and flange the parts, not butt welded. At least till you get better. You need to learn how to stretch and shrink metal IMO. Get a English wheel.....And make the welds hotter.....the ones I saw were cold.....Tough on sheet metal but necessary....

Yeah I started cutting those back out shortly after you all left that morning.

English wheel is on the list to acquire. Them things are a bit pricey, especially the dies
