    Wes the dual voltage welders are Great I bought a Lincoln Electric 180 dual voltage welder in 2016 it came with a professional top of the line trail deer camo welding helmet valve of almost $320.00 dollars USD the welder was under $1,300.00 dollars USD the shielding gas ratio is 75/25 for mild steel and came with 2 rolls of wire 2.5 pounds of flux core and mig wire my next door neighbor to the north had a broken straight tined rake I welded it back together he accidentally ran the rake over with a 9000 pound skid steer and the weld didn’t break

    Hello from Nebraska Wes. Thank you for the awesome videos! In my experience with stress cracks in steel they are always 90 degrees like yours was. I put what I call a fish plate over it after welding it back up helps spread out the load. Also like to drill out the ends of the crack. Hope it holds together for you!

    Actually super impressed with the duty cycle of that little sucker. And always gotta love flux core.weld right over dirty painted steel and loves it. Not gunna lie I
    Might consider buying one of those little units for home personal unit. At work I’ve got all millers and Lincoln’s but for my own stuff I’d rather not spend huge money. I’ve considered the Canadian brand kicking horse welders before there a cheap smaller unit to but that one seems to do better tbh

    I bought a chinese welder last year, deko 200a.. Got it to run of my 220v generator, its extremely small and portable.. I am honestly delighted with it, literally my only gripe with it, is its really not a 200a welder, more 150a.. Dial tells lies.. But Ive ran it for about 8 sticks straight one day and it never missed a beat.. Bought it for 100 bucks off amazon.. Oh and the hot start is a bit of a joke on it.. But once its gets going, it welds absolutely fine.. Its replaced my old lincolin I can rely on it that much..

    Wess your Wife is correct! Nearsightedness, also known as myopia or short-sightedness, is a common eye disease that causes distant objects to appear blurry while close objects appear normal. It occurs when the shape of the eye causes light rays to bend and focus in front of the retina, instead of on it. This can happen when the eye is longer than the optical length.

    The prices to deal with our lovely DEF systems is outrageous. The rest of the world is polluting away but not us. Right. 😂 the people process to make all the DEF components and consumables basically nullifies any advantage we may get from running the systems. I’ve run heavy equipment most of my life. I’ve thrown away THOUSANDS of those plastic DEF fluid jugs. Heck I even worked at a landfill for quite awhile and those jugs are not recycled. They go right into the landfill. Most landfills up to medium sized no longer waste time with recycling. I personally would haul the recycling containers up to the landfill dump site at the end of the day and dump the stuff in with the regular trash. Glass is rarely recycled. Plastics are rarely recycled… if plastics are saved then they are bailed up and sold to facilities that BURN the plastic for energy. Many plastic bales are sold to Asia for just that. Metal is basically the only thing that the major landfill company I worked for would recycle.

  • @guytech7310
    @guytech7310 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    For the Krone bracket, you would be better off TIG Welding it, since TIG is more likely to provide a stronger weld. I don't know what the load is on that bracket, but if it was enough to crack it, Its probably enough to that a MIG weld might not last long term.
    For MIG I use dual shield: Flux Core & Gas which pretty much guarantees no welding problems (unless is windy), or if the work pieces aren't prepped.
    As for bolt strength. The Grades are also different between SAE & Metric. A SAE grade 8 Bolt is the same as a Metric grade 10.9 bolt. Perhaps you were using SAE bolt grade scales for Metric bolts.

    Biggest issue for me with Metric, is having to buy two sets of tools; SAE & metric. Another issue is equipment that is half SAE & half Metric. You start working on something using SAE sizes, than have to switch over to Metric wrenches. to finish the job.
    As far as metric decimalization supporters, the ignore when metric uses fractional sizes like 10.5 mm, 7.5 mm, etc. Another think is Metrics F'd up sizing. Why not make it 25 mm per inch instead of 25.4 mm per inch. At least it would have made conversion math a lot easier.
    If the US manufacturing stayed in the US, likely everything here would have remained SAE. But Good ol' Uncle Sam regulated US Manufacturing out of business.
