Does not look cold or off line penetrated well..All in one pass or did you pulse or pull away much ?
All in one pass... no, running amps around 140 on a miller dynasty 350, 12 seconds of postflow and i was using the laying filler metal technique.I couldnt tell if your trying to tell me my weld looks good or like shit lol.
I deal with Lincoln welders everyday mostly migs..And have to deal with teaching Motoman robots jobs as well daily.. And as well many others..

Argon and Co2mix..

We have a mig machine with argon co2 mix also, it throws a shitload of sparks

I can run a bead with 6.5 and wire speed on 350 on 20 gauge metal all day long smile.png

Well, i usually dont weld practice mixed gas mig, but i can lay down a nice bead, we'll see whos bead looks better monday... Maybe yours because you have more experience on your side

I will let the Yaskama run a double pass on some 20 gauge metal and modify the job and flip the jig on the first pass on the x-axis and create another job to put my user name in the metalbiggrin.png

I got some of my seeds for my garden in..Need help with advice for germination"sure I can google it"but was going to see if anybody had any "tips or tricks"

 

Seeds I have..

 

Peaches and cream sweet corn 50 seeds

Clemson spineless okra 100 seeds

Blue lake green beans 60 seeds

Early Jalapeno 100 seeds

Golden Zucchini 25 seeds

Waltham butternut squash 30 seeds

 

I know the corn,okra,and green beans last year I just planted the seeds in the garden and they did well,but I suspect these others I need to germinate and transfer..

 

Also they sent me some Italian large leaf basil for whatever reason huh2.gif  I assume with those I just sow like as turnip greens,ect.

 

 

 

Some of these I have planted by the seeds before without germination with good results,such as the green beans ,corn,and okra.

I use two methods of germination. Some get started indoors,in trays, and then transplanted. Some veggies, such as carrots MUST be started in the ground. So this is where the second method I use comes in. I plastic over the garden beds after seediing. The reason for the plastic is two fold. First it keeps the birds from eating the seed. They will dig the seeds right out of the ground. Second it keeps the temps up, which may not be an issue for you. Seeds and seedlings, like 70-90 percent humidity (think jungle) and will thrive if the conditions are ideal. 

 

Everything on your list I personally start in trays.  The corn is not necessary to start this way but, I like to have my garden laid out. I transplant the corn almost right after it sprouts. This allows proper spacing upon planting. You may find interest in the three sisters method, which is plant the beans at the base of the corn, they use the corn as a lattice, the third sister is the squash or zucchini, which you plant around the base. Look it up if confused.

 

Give me a minute and I will grab you some pics.

Just spent the past 5 hours drinking with the band from the Long Bar at Raffles Hotel. Super fun to go into the most famous bar in Asia and have the band in mid-song say "Welcome Back Sean"

That is awesome.

You are pretty easy to remember in SE Asia I would guess.....

 

They've been playing there for 20 years.  Considering the guy I regularly travel with here lived in a hotel and started Seagate here at that time he knows them real well.  The guitar player and I are friends for the past 7 years now so they remember me well...

 

How serendipitous! :) 

 

 

Sean I sent you a PM. I know you can't get a text but I was hoping you could help out.

I need some experience input etc.

I get texts.  Jared sent me some wink.png

 

I also got your PM, I'd like more details but responded.

 

I felt terrible once I looked at the world clock and realized it was 3am in the morning there. Sorry dude.

Sean, you had asked how ppl sort and organize their stuff while they are working in the garage. I didn't get a chance to respond then but had some input. My favorites are the tool box trays. I use them when doing a procedure on both sides. Say wheel bearings. I can have the new parts in one slot, and old parts in another, and a tray for both sides. Other fav's are the half rack trays, great for rebuilding stuff, like carburetors. Can layout the new parts on one tray and dismantle on another. Once the old part is pulled out you can tranfer the new part to a spot on the other tray. This way the parts not needed in a kit wont confuse you. Other wise I buy the holiday tuperware at target after the holidays. Usually can be had for pennys on the dollar at that point. Great for sorting Lego btw. smile.png
