I know, I am a little shorter and possibly a little "rounder" than you. LOL.

Nice to have a giant around sometimes.

And maybe you could start your own info-mercial and call it, "The Shad Rack". Take him anywhere, anytime, he'd gladly change that light bulb or weld that one 2" high up on a line. Just feed him nuts and beer.

Thats what I do NOW ! Here is a picture of him today. I had to wake him up twice. Then I had to listen to him SCREAM when fire dropped in his ear.

Safety guy needs to put up a barricade or yellow caution tape around those legs, major trip hazard.

So i get to use the bosses machine today. and well it welds ok hard to tell welding galvanized material over head ( no i didnt get sick). and well i gave it a run for its money when we finally got to weld on the top in the hroizontal pos. well ok it can weld good im sure it does alot better when the material aint galvanized but it will burn off the gal. coating off with 5/32 jet rod set at 164 seemed hot to me but there werent any pin holes and it look good lots of under cut but they bought the welds and we got the hell out of there do i want a vantage now? not yet but i am going to either sell my green light machine and buy a redface or just change out the barrel to a redface housing and give that vantage 500 a run for its money
Parent - - By Cactusthewelder (*****) Date 06-26-2010 02:19
