Thank you for your opening comment regarding thinking outside of the box when solving a problem. In particular, your solution to the speedometer mount is priceless! I have friends and relatives who want me to "weld" them a solution. Your mount using a drill and screws is a perfect example of the best fit solution to a problem. Thank you also for your personal advice of averting sweetheart issues using their cherished belongings. I suppose if they figured out they sometimes hold the key to our success, things would go so much smoother. Dish towels and nail polish, I'll never forget these two!
Thanks @Tim Toy I too have the habit of sometimes overthinking a solution. You hit the nail on the head about the sweethearts holding the key to our success. Very well said!
Glad you mentioned wearing gloves as I had a sanding disk fly apart leaving a small gash in my index finger. Even your thin tig gloves would give you some protection.
Man that's for sure. I'm a idiot and took off all the safeties on my 5 grinders and cant find them. So I have cut myself 4 or 5 times now. Even with leather gloves, at 12K RPC, it cuts through, but far better than nothing. I do know I am looking to replace my grinders with paddle ones and will NOT be removing the guards for sure lol.
As always, your advice and instructions are what I wacth your videos for. My welding is improving (sort of....still not great) but the fabrication advice is priceless and what I weld will stay together so there is that!!! Really love the way your go about setting things up. Be well, be safe, and you CAN go to the store and by your OWN nail polish!!! Just a suggestion for future reference!!!
Hahahahaha thanks Jim and it's probably much safer if I do buy it myself. A happy wife is a happy life :) Take care buddy @Jim MacSuga I hope everyone is well!
@@BrandonLund All is well. Got started on my yard work yesterday. Going to use the lawn areator I built last year for the first time that you inspired me to do!!!
I have always loved working with Aluminum. My life goal is go get a suitable welder, maybe Tig (but have the Yeswelder bookmarked to get), and just goto town making stuff out of ALuminum. I have no clue WHY I love working with Aluminum so much. It's a weird addiction. and wait.. You're a grandfather? Either you age like fine wine or you started young lol
Hahahahahah Aluminum welding is a lot of fun. It's fun to cut and finish. I like it a lot too. Funny story...a few years ago I was sitting next to my daughter at the dentist. The lady across from us knew my daughter (I had never seen her before). The lady secretly took our picture and sent it to her daughter with a text saying "I think Adriana has a new boyfriend" (meaning me) My daughter was so grossed out. I walked around the rest of day like a peacock lol. I'm 51, my daughters 21 and her son is 4. I'd love to say it's years of taking good care of my body and eating good but I would be lying lol.
2 questions one is the name of your other channel? Well I only had one question. I had a floppy disc on my angle grinder without a guard and I was wearing shorts. I dropped it while it was running and it hit the floor and I didn't jump back, it came back up and put a nice gash in my leg just above my ankle. And it didn't bleed much or really hurt at first. My wife went into action, she works for a company that makes medical devices and on came the new skin. Lesson learned real fast and the guard never comes off.
WOW you got lucky! I'm glad it wasn't serious. My welding channel is Brandon Lund and my motorcycle channel is Moto-Vated207. Thanks for your support brother!
Thanks @Ian Kidd I appreciate it! I wish I would have written it down. I pretty much started in synergic mode then added a slight amount of voltage but I don't remember the exact number. Sorry.
Yes sir @Jose Vazquez however I have never tried in fear i'll mess something up when I replace the liner. I'm really careful with the Fronius. I should probably give it a try sometime. I'm sure it will be incredible. I have this setup pretty much for MIG 100% of the time but it would be interesting to see how it does.
Hello Brandon,, here's an outside of the box question,,, Has anyone ever tried to use aluminum electric fence wire for welding wire? It's very stiff and would feed well in a MIG but two unanswered questions remain,,,, one I don't know what type of aluminum it's made from and number two it's .050in. and wondered if that was to large. but I still wonder if anyone has ever tried using it. Thanks Ron
Great question Ron! I think the diameter might be the issue because the closest mig gun contact tip size is .045 but it might be interesting to try tig welding with it
Brandon, one needs to be careful wearing gloves around rotating equipment. I took a coworker to the medical center because a glove he was wearing pulled his fingers into a circular blade on a gang saw. Osha considers it a safety violation to wear gloves because of the risk of the aforementioned problem. I argued with my boss about this, and he actually looked it up and then apologized because it could put a person at risk of damages from say, a glove getting twisted around a drill bit.
I agree with you 100% @Bryant Fry. Lathes and drill presses are also machines that gloves can be a problem. I generally wear gloves when grinding but smaller delicate parts I dont because I know I need good control

Me and my wife got a good laugh out of the finger nail polish and kitchen towels…😂 I need that welder in my life…😍
Hey Brandon, great video , thanks for sharing with us. Great repair . Fred.
Thanks for watching Fred! I hope everyone is doing well! @OLD DAWG DREAMING
Glad you mentioned wearing gloves as I had a sanding disk fly apart leaving a small gash in my index finger. Even your thin tig gloves would give you some protection.
@Apenza I've had a few mishaps as well. Its no fun getting hurt

Gloves are great just don’t get them sucked into the wheel. Break your fingers fast

Hi Brandon, great video as always. What were your sweet spot settings for Aluminum.
Thanks
Thanks @Ian Kidd I appreciate it! I wish I would have written it down. I pretty much started in synergic mode then added a slight amount of voltage but I don't remember the exact number. Sorry.
Does the Fronius Transsteel welds aluminium without the need of spool gun too?
Yes sir @Jose Vazquez however I have never tried in fear i'll mess something up when I replace the liner. I'm really careful with the Fronius. I should probably give it a try sometime. I'm sure it will be incredible. I have this setup pretty much for MIG 100% of the time but it would be interesting to see how it does.
@@BrandonLund I would be worried too! LOL!!!
Good work, and good advice......about being stealthy. Lol.
Hahahaha thanks man! I like your style 😎 @T Kilg
Great little job.
You are a bad influence 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hahahahahahaha Thanks man :) @Basil Keen
We’re you get the flap disc at mardens got some good prices
I get all my abrasives from Empire Abrasives. I'd love to catch a sale at mardens but I can't ever seem to find one.
I feel ya brother.
I am in the middle of finding another place to live. My landlorf is selling the property now I have to down size, No Garage 😔😭
Sorry to hear than man @Willard Lentz I'm outgrowing my little workshop currently. Hopefully someday I can build bigger but for now it's pretty cozy.
COOL!!!!!
Thanks @Jimmy Lee!

You and both! @Earl Cavenaugh
