A nice Steelhead Trout fillet for dinner tonight. Gently poached and it pairs nicely with my signature alfredo rice Florentine with some warm crusty sourdough bread and butter on the side.

Oh yeah, besides the artwork...I'm a pretty good chef too! :D

I think they should teach TIG welding first to welding automotive students.....

I find that "walking the cup" works with mig welding too.

When I was a beginner I was always rushed when I pressed the trigger on the welder .....as I became more experienced, I got less in a rush because you realize that you don't have to be afraid of the puddle, and you can actually take your time with it. (not too much LOL)

I go back and forth side to side with the puddle just like walking the cup and it gets better heat penetration and smoother and wider roll of dimes :D

The best welders can see and "feel" the weld as it evolves. It becomes a fluid process and you see the liquid metal moving and forming as you go. It becomes like moving warm clay and shaping it the way you want.

It sounds like you have reached that level where it does what you want it to do at will...rather than feeling like you are trying to force it to do what you want. Awesome! :thumbup:

you would really think that mopar performance would make a spring perch with the correct index pin hole.

The older cars (our cars) have a 1/2 inch index pin but all the new spring perches have a 5/8 inch hole drilled into them :protest::protest:

If IRC the Moroso perches had the 1/2 inch hole in them. Also the old Direct Connection kits had the perches with the 1/2 inch hole.

my buddy itself ....110v mig on the bottle.

It originally came from eastwood as a bundle with some of the accessories.

By far the best Christmas gift I ever got in my life from my parents. Before this I started out with a century brand flux core machine and it didn't have the hook up for the bottle .....it was a rough machine because it surged and the wire feed mech. was always messing up. :protest:

the Lincoln is so smooth and I rarely have problems with it and It has been very used LOL
