O yeah, he has a big bench, he showed it to me

Maybe MM and he should compare notes.

I don't want to to brag, but it's 25" x 16'.

While visiting T-Dogg today he gave me a tour of his shop, very impressive I must say! Excellent use of working space. Lots of room to work wither it be mill work or lathe turning, wielding or working on the bench. O yeah, he has a big bench, he showed it to me

Not to be confused with a big deck, of course. What's he wielding?

typo, welding

And not very good welding either. Out of practice, mig with flux core wiring, breaker kept kicking. Adds up for ugly welds (though I've seen much much worse). Good penetration on the welds, just big lumpy lumps on top though, no popcorn welds. Really need to get that argon, practice and get the breaker figured out (manual says 20 amp time delay breaker, it was on a regular 20 amp).

It's been tough keeping up with this thread.

While house sitting in NC with my mother, I unfortunately get to see a lot of morning TV. That's her daily routine until about 11am. The really frustrating thing is the constant anti-gun message that is being delivered to folks that watch daily TV. Constant. It spans everything from subtle comments to over 'news' stories of people impacted by violence. All is labeled as evidence as to why guns are bad.

My mother is reasonably conservative and fully supports gun ownership. I don't worry about her voting with the anti-gunners but your average adult watching this crap has a constant, never ending message that guns are bad and need to be controlled.

Leftist ideology dominates TV programming, movies and MSM. That's what's worst about Tucker Carlson being fired from Fox News, there is no longer a voice like that in mainstream programming.

Lots of people tell me I am wrong but for years I have been saying that we are losing the war over the 2A. Sure we are winning some battles along the way but the "hearts and minds" of the American public continues to shift away from gun ownership being a Constitution right to guns being a danger to our personal and public safety.

Listening to NPR yesterday about the State of Washington ban on semi-auto platforms and how they describe the AR15 you would think it was Brutus with a million round mag, no recoil and a whisper quiet silencer.

They forget how protecting the 2A relates to protecting the 1A and the Constitution rights...

Did he show you his … special sock drawer… you know, the one in the work bench

There is a saying amongst welders. "A grinder & paint makes me the welder I ain't"

To be honest, this was not a pantless meeting, so I am not sure if he had socks on. So, in my mind if he possible is not wearing sox why would he have a special sock drawer in his huge work bench nor were any containers labeled special sock drawer.

 

[llh1956]

With a little practice the dogg will be stacking dimes on his welding projects!

I will crack open a non Anheuser Busch product to celebrate passing 7000 post!
