Yeah usually .120. Just mild steel since we paint the frames. We can build you one I pull when mig welding. Just look around on some hot rod forums.

Mig and Metal Core = Push

Stick and Flux Core = Pull/Drag

You'll hear so many "it doesn't matter" statements, but those are the proper techniques.

Build me one how much does that usually run? I would just need dimensions and I could do my owner like a write up. Never done one but wouldn't mine trying

With stick and flux core welding you MUST, absolutely MUST pull/drag.
Metal core you MUST push.

Mig does work both ways. However, the proper technique is to push.
Solid wire mig doesn't penetrate the base metal very well compared to all the other types of processes. If you search around you can find some cut away's and you'll see what I mean. Mig doesn't penetrate worth a shit (in comparison).

When you push mig, the theory is that you are allowing the arc to slightly burn ahead and that the wire is "digging" into the material better. Therefore giving a more penetrating weld. Whereas when you pull mig, it doesn't burn in as effectively.

Now, if you are doing thin parts, IE 0.120'' thick stuff, you're not likely to notice any significant difference other than appearance.

But if you were doing, lets say a structural test piece, and you dragged you mig, you would almost certainly fail.

But solid wire mig certifications are a joke and a waste of time for most people, lol.

Canadian certs are different than US. Ours are harder. I keep forgetting that.

Our plates have only one bevelled side and the sngle on the other side 35* if I'm not mistaken. We also have to do 2 or 3 stop-starts... It's really gay...

^ sealed cap. Most likely a vented cap will boil over.

One of my good buddies has a local fab shop. He can pretty much weld anything, but his speciality is putting roll cages into various Porsches. He's a mad man and a fantastic fabricator. (For northeast guys Does the primary fab work for Dawes Motorsports, and used to do work for Deman before they hired an house guy)

Anywho, here are some pictures from a recent GT3 996. Customer wanted the cage tight to the chassis, but not overly obtrusive in vision. This seems to work. It's not over the top, but still a quality piece.

Edit: Don't mind the tilted supertrapps on the exhaust tips, that's to pass Db requirements at Limerock Park

Not sure if it's been covered in here but who is everyone using for suppliers? I've found burns to be the best quality stuff and Ace is cheapest. I don't imagine most have a madrel bender at their disposal.

LOL! I kind of assumed it was in reference to the the lack dimple die pieces. I forget the actual classing of these cars, but you're actually not allowed to weld them too the pillars, so the goal is to get them as close as you can/almost touching. The tubes are actually much stronger than the little sheet metal tacos/trinagles. He's had a few guys really smash the cars up, all have held up perfectly so it must work somehow haha.

On a serperate note, I personally think some of those gusset looking things are kinda tacky...IMO it lets the cage guy too much leeway in the construction, as he can jut put a big plate with holes in and and call it a day.

Here is an example of a customer that literally wanted contact:





Only on the base of the pillars is it welded. I don't have a super good shot of them, but here you can see the B pillar base and how it was setup

CWB Inspectors are such cunts. I was under spec 1/8th for a crack on my square Stop/start, for my 3G. Got dinged.
It's my own fault really, I didn't burn back enough on the restart. But still.
Everything else was mintyyyy and I got dinged.

I was close. It's been a while since I've had to do any CWB testing.

I don't know who your instructor was, but he was lenient. I've only ever been allowed 1/32'' in any errors.

I had my all positions, TIG, Stick, Flux/Metal Core. And then my TSSA (Pressure vessel) certs...
