    Soooo yes we've done a few episodes on exhausts in the past, BUT today we graduate from buying a full exhaust to buying raw materials so we can make our own! Having a loud exhaust is not only rad but it helps the driver with shifting times. And we are 100% into being the best rally drivers in the world so that means we need to make the e36 the best it can be. As our homegirl J.Lo said "let's get loud people." (Jobe hates this joke but I still kept it ... haha). Go watch the vid!

    As a welder fabricator, I'd love to see a follow up on how the exhaust holds up over time, instead of back purging too you can use solar flux next time for when you don't want to use the extra argon, the welds become more brittle when you don't back purge too it's not just about the aesthetic and its tendency for rusting quicker, it's worth doing at least a backing plate or something, love what you guys are doing!

    Should’ve mentioned that cleaning your parts with brake parts cleaner can be extremely dangerous. If your brake cleaner contains tetrachloroethylene, you can expose yourself to an extremely poisonous gas when welding.
    A lot of the “50 state” brake parts cleaner no longer contains this chemical, they use acetone instead. But always check, and it’s honestly safer to use acetone by itself.

    • @rodanone4895
      @rodanone4895 2 ปีที่แล้ว +45

      one hundred and ten percent!!! acetone. and be careful with the acetone. some have oils and grease remnants emulsified when you buy it. apparently there is reagent grade acetone where this ingredient is controlled. but i can't find it. i start with acetone. then scrub again with a dry cloth. the danger them becomes lint... shop vac. then weld.
      tom eager from MIT has an amazing series on TH-cam for welding metallurgy, fusion welding etc .. but, the algorithm is unlikely to recommend it. he talks often of welding cleanliness even with low carbon steel.

    First off, if that was your first time welding…amazing job! Second, check out stainless autogenous pulse tig, it has totally changed how I weld stainless exhaust. I understand this is a beater but it was my understanding that you shouldn’t stiff weld the exhaust to the chassis as the vibrations will cause some points of it to crack (hopefully not near the headers. The hanger needs bushings. Also, what a lovely head of hair.

      The filler is helpful for extra strength I would think, autogenous welds are nice because you use only the material you're welding, but it can leave the material a bit weaker than a good filler bead with back purging. This is just my experience though so if I'm incorrect I apologize lol

      Very underrated comment. To a newer welder, they may not notice. But if you do the different grinds back to back, you can really see the difference. It’s why you want a large angle (60* point) for thin metal, vs a shallow angle (15* point) for thicker metals. The large angle allows you to have a more focused arc, where the heat affected zone isn’t trying to melt a larger area of the metal.
