Here's what my TIG skills are like... Actually they are a little weak still since it's been so damn long.
Here are some quick beads I threw together today.
Please note, that I DID NOT use proper cleaning techniques because I was in a hurry to get out by lunch today. So these are not my best, lol
All welds done with 3/32' 2% Thoriated Tungsten and 3/32" filler rod. All welds performed on 1/4" thick mild steel in a tee shape.
Here's a quick multi pass overhead I threw together today. Done in the verticle up position.
These are not perfect. However,I hadn't eaten today so I was kinda shakey today.
Here's a sinlge pass done in the verticle up position.
TIG welds should be this tight!!!
Single pass overhead.
Multi-pass done in verticle up.
Note: This was done to simply show all 3 beads.
Another overhead.
Verticle up. A little slow.
Horizontal done to slow. Far to slow and they really shouldn't be this spread out!
Note: the other welds are NOT mine.
This was done to show how they shouldn't be spread out so much.
A much to slow Overhead.
A shakey mutli-pass verticla up.
Nickle used for a size reference.
I knwo these aren't really nice fabriation piece. I just thought there could be another TIG welder in here!
lol.
