You are a wealth of knowledge Rob , very clever person, I'm loving this chanell I'm learning so much that's Rob where do you learn all these things 😀 Thanks Rob..
All I can say is I had an early start in the industry, and have been lucky enough to work with and learn from some truely talented people. I have taken a lot of this knowledge and experimented with it to expand it on the fly. This is what I am now sharing with the world, and mate, we haven't even scratced the surface yet. 😉 Cheers Rob.
hi l am Shayne l am 16 years old I love the old school cars any car like Holden and ford and I am so amaze with your work and I'm just learn from you and thank because I hope that someday I can do that and keep up the good
G'day shayne i started my apprenticeship as a panel beater when I was 16 i am still in the trade now 38 years later I like seeing young people like you that are keen good luck young man
Another great video with lots of information. I really enjoyed hearing about Old Bruce and his knowledge of steel as well as the story of the broken tractor. Thanks again 👍
Rob was Old Bruce's surname Aspley or Asplen. My wife's father Len Woods used to talk to Old Bruce to get advice about welding and other metalwork tips. Love the channel.
You are right it was Bruce Aspley. Lovely bloke and only too happy to share his knowledge. I have to admit that I miss him. He called me "Bob" from the day he met me, and we had a good working relationship for years. I would remove and refit springs for Bruce to preform his magic on.
Hi Rob just subscribed to your channel an its good to see an hear you explain a job you're working on easy to understand, love the old rusty motors that come to life
Thanks Rob and Deb, a very interesting lesson. Amazing how much the metal moves around and what a clever way to gauge how to get it back to where you want. Same as Jeff, why CO2?
Co2 has a higher burn temp in the weld, so greater penetration. Also it is a stronger weld than the argon blends. It is like using a low hydrogen rod with a stick welder. I was relying on the extra penetration to bite into the adjacent beads as I built up the area. This ensures a solid repair. Cheers Rob.
Hi you people from down under. I don't catch any videos over the holidays, so had no chance to comment. So better late than never. Hope you all had a good Christmas and New Year. Don't spend too much time on the beach.
Another great vid mate. It's good to find vids with explanations, it's how we learn. One question, why are you running straight Co2 ? Also is there a gas I can use for both Tig and Mig ? I weld with Mig now 75/25, and I want to learn Tig, and keep the costs down. Cheers.
Hi Rob, I'm about to weld the leaf spring perches on my early Holden axle housing. Do you think this amount of welding would be enough to distort the housing? How would you go about it? Love your channel, I look forward to each installment. Cheers, Ray.
Good job Rob saving that old diff housing I am a panel beater I like watching your videos
Old school repair
Absolutely love it

Old school, best school! In the land of CNC we need to hang on to old skills. Technology has a habit of craping it self.

It still amazes me how much heat will move steel. See the response to Jeff's comment about the gas. Chees Rob.
Hi Rob. Why straight CO2 for this job?
Co2 has a higher burn temp in the weld, so greater penetration. Also it is a stronger weld than the argon blends. It is like using a low hydrogen rod with a stick welder. I was relying on the extra penetration to bite into the adjacent beads as I built up the area. This ensures a solid repair. Cheers Rob.
Absolutely 😎👍,.... anything MOPARORNOCAR/TRUCK'S 🤙🍷🥃

A plug in the end of the housing would work in a lathe ,
