Some more Tig work

Getting better at my tig work. Here is a shot.

The t joint was my first joint of 6 on this 1/4" plate setup and the lap joint was my last.

Back to Tig

So after the fcaw 2g and 3g tests yesterday, I'm back to practicing my Tig 1g for the 18th.

Things seem to be rolling along nicely.
Here is my lap joint from today.

I'm happy with these as is my instructor.

Tig welding

So I've moved up to doing test plates for tig. My first one bent with no issues. Here is a shot of the root passes for the second plate. I shot it while waiting for the plate to cool.

Also some shots of 1 1/4" .120 wall ERW tubing that I will be using for a frame build after I'm done the course. I coped and tigged it and then put it in the destructive testing bender to see how it would hold up and it looks great.
