      Very clean. I miss welding. Just don't miss doing it in a huge factory environment. I look fwd to your projects and videos. I subscribed !!

    As an (ex) jig designer I would have drilled straight through the main square of the tube and put the bolt all the way through before welding. That would insure the bolts are parallel. Just welding the bolts on may result in a mechanical lock if the bolts aren’t square on.
    Nice welding. Very neat.

    I've been a machinist for 45 years , and bought a Lincoln Tig machine in 2005 and have had a blast with it . Since I have been watching TFS I've been making some pretty good money with it. My observation on this video is that you would make a good machinist.

    @henrybourgeois548 5 років тому +1

    I appreciate the fact you call beginners "hacks"
    No one is a welding God. Some are just really experienced, plus naturally talented.
    Fun to watch bro.

    Know this is an older video , wanted to say I was really impressed . I have tig welded for years and I've never saw on where you could expose so much tungsten ! This cup is really impressive and I would like to order a few for where I work ! The helmet looks to be an Optrel as well ( my personal pick ) ! Will be binge watching now to see how this all goes as well ! New Sub

    Damn I love watching you weld! Those beads look so good. It's funny what you start to look at and take notice of, once you've taken-up TIG welding. Things that you've never really noticed before, just by watching a welder do their job. Pretty welds! Thank you for sharing!

    Ruffstuff Specialties sells some baller tube bungs for square tube, I think with those you wouldn't have the issue with the corner gaps.
    When I built my three link on my Jeep I heard horror stories of the rod end threads seizing in the bungs from heat so I coated them with antisieze before welding. Awesome video, I like seeing some suspension Fab on here!

    @flinch622 5 років тому

    Nice work. My instinct for a threaded pin is to measure what 5 thread engagement is near the end, then split the remainder in half for the adjustable portion/initial location before adjustment. Locknuts can put a pretty good load on mating surfaces, so having only 2 or 3 threads engaged is just trouble waiting to happen.
