      🎉🎉🎉Without blood there is no life and without Jesus Blood no Eternal life. The Gospel is 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the GOSPEL which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are SAVED, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, HOW THAT CHRIST DIED FOR OUR SINS ACCORDING TO THE SCRIPTURES; AND THAT HE WAS BURIED, AND THAT HE ROSE AGAIN THE THIRD DAY ACCORDING TO THE SCRIPTURES. Ephesian 1:13=In whom ye also TRUSTED, after that ye heard the word of truth, the GOSPEL of your SALVATION: in whom also after that ye BELIEVED, ye were SEALED with that holy Spirit of promise. Ephesian 2:8-9=For by GRACE are ye SAVED through FAITH; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of WORKS, lest any man should boast. Romans 3:23-26=For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; Being JUSTIFIED FREELY by his GRACE through the REDEMPTION that is in Christ Jesus: Whom God hath set forth to be a PROPITIATION through FAITH in his BLOOD, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God; To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which BELIEVETH in Jesus. Without blood there is no life and without Jesus BLOOD no eternal life. ua-cam.com/video/lbb4xwYj19g/v-deo.html Look up Robert Breaker on youtube.

    YOURS are the best welds i've seen yet from several different MAKES of this style welder.
    I wouldn't buy one of these with
    any expectation of doing DAILY
    use , but with the intention of
    Trail Repairs & light sheet metal
    work . TACK Welding in awkward
    places seems to be the best use
    for this style.
    I was on the fence , but seeing
    YOUR welds makes me think this
    particular MAKE + MODEL
    is indeed feasible for the above
    mentioned , as a 2nd or 3rd welder to keep handy .

  • @mrhalfstep
    @mrhalfstep 4 місяці тому +5

    I've seen many videos of non-welders trying to weld with this. They either had too big of a rod or the wrong rod for the steel thickness or just the wrong type rod for the project and were unaware of any of the requirements for welding...and got a sh*tty result. You seem to know what you're doing because I could totally live with that weld, compared to all the others I've seen that are just porous globs of bubble gum. With an 1/8" rod, no less, and without a direct ground connection to the workpiece!

    Do you think I'd be able to use this to make an extension for my harbor freight band saw so I can put thicker (wider on end) pieces between the table and the guides? For resawing purposes....

    Looks great on clean metal. How does it do with dirty sometimes rusty metal? Sometimes repairs aren't always ideal. I'm just curious. Because it looks really convenient.

    The endless potential capabilities of this tool are way underrated. Been welding going on 10 years now. I have a Lincoln Power MIG 210 Multi-Process machine as my everyday welder. Normally run .35 flux core Just because all I need to have is 120 V plug available. With the option of also plugging in to 240v If available. Typically I leave the 240 V plug at home however and I’m going to weld a quick broken thing for a buddy or do a small project or whatever lugging that 40 pound Machine around gets old quick. Why lug it around for a five minute weld job, or fixing something broken on the trail. Obviously your not gonna go welding on the pipeline with this, But for something the size of an 1/2 in impact gun which I already carry everywhere I go, you Can fuse carbon steel together that’s worth it’s weight in gold

      Good for quick things. With a duty cycle of only 20% (2 mins welding 8 minutes cool down) you won't be doing any prolonged welding.
