    This takes me back, did this for a long long time, we always used to solder not weld but it seems to make just as good a job of it. Nice work. You may find that stopping at a corner point means you get a better finish on end product.

    Pretty nice. I'm curious about the little brake setup you're using to bend the wrappers. Is that just a machinist vise that you made dies for?

      Michael Whaley A big one is try to use some type of an aluminum bar for a heat sink behind your weld while you’re welding. Also curious are you using gas to weld way or flux core?

    • @AMakersJourney
      @AMakersJourney  4 роки тому

      Michael Whaley that flux core unfortunately could be part of the problem. If you use a little bit thicker gauge you could probably get away with doing flux core with no problem with maybe 18 gauge or 20 gauge
