Man yeah Mr Steve, looks great for hard surface stuff. That is a very very very touchy thing to do. Love the warnings at the end. I was gonna mention that about the fumes! Great job my friend, I hope you had a great independence day🇺🇲🇺🇲😁😁😁
We did. I need to get a new pair of shop boots, the last two pair I've had have fallen apart in less than 6 months, and the pair I had before that hurt my feet so bad I couldn't walk for 3 days. But tennis shoes definitely don't work. Thanks as always for the comments and support
When we used to plow everything, I did a lot of hard surfacing. Gotta find the sweet spot, hot enough to stick, cold enough to not penitrate too deep... and run smooth. Seems like 90 amps on the old buzz box was the spot. I didn't think shears for our 3 plows, as well as many sets for some neighbors. I think you did it right, I would have used the mig for the repairs. I've had much better luck with it than any rod on things like that.
Thanks Ed, the mig did great to fill in, but I wanted to use my farm arc welder to hard face it. It looked rough but it has been holding up well. Thanks for the comments
Mate i think for never doing this sort of job you did some resirch to fined out the how to in end i think you did very well and it don't look terrible all welders repairer don't like there own work i have never done a job like this But out of saying there are mig wires and different types of gas for this sort of work i do know that but for a one off job that could out way the coast of the job as we all know customers don't like paying for this stuff All up dam good job keep the video coming like your style of getting it done Cheers
I really appreciate that. Your right about having to watch cost and you are exactly right about the rods versus the mig set up for this. I appreciate your support and comments. Stay safe.
Good or bad, it's my work. My name is attached to it. I'm not the best by any means, but I'm trying to get better every day. I appreciate your support and comments. Thanks
Awesome video STEVE. Thanks for sharing. Keep the content coming. Hope you have an incredible weekend. Much love and RESPECT
Thanks for the comments and support
Good morning Steve ☕☕☕
It's been years, but I've run a stump grinder.. only work i did on it was changed teeth..
Looks like a successful repair! I've never done any hard facing. There's a few things I'd like to try it on someday. Thanks for the video, Steve!
Thanks for the support and comments. It's an art. I have some more to do but hopefully I'll figure it out before I finish.

Our humidity is up due to monsoon rains so it's a bit sticky. Gorilla Glob Welding; sounds real familiar! That stump grinder is a beast.
Good morning Matt ☕☕☕
Already over 80° and down to 50%.. 🥵 they're saying 97° now, so we'll be 102+/- I suppose...
It's a monster, but it was a really cool job and I got to learn something new. thank you for the support

It takes a brave man to put his welds on youtube for all of the “armchair experts” to critique. Nice job 👍
