D rod, you're supposed to grind it smooth before taking pics. When you smooth it out it shines so bright and you can't tell what it really looks like. That's my trick anyway. Shine it up and re-post it and I bet you get compliments. Give it a shot.

Spent the morning out at the goat ranch.:lol: It's hard work being a goat rancher.:ito::smoke: Ok Gage lets hear it, and they are goats not sheep. In fact I'm naming the brown one Gage. He's a stud, untill I cut his you know what's off.

it prolly would look better if you welded on a clean surface to begin with and added a little more power/heat less wire feed , it looks like the weld is laying on top of the metal that needs to be welded .... not enough penetration ...... you did use the mig with gas didnt you , that allso helps it should look like it just about flowed intoo the surrounding metal
everyone should be able to weld eventually if they try and know wat to do when surtan things happen tig welding should sound like sissling bacon in a frying pan when its cracling and its too high power or too little wirefeed hissing is to low power to big wirefeed when you set the balance on a couple of scraps youre usually set for the rest of the truck , just keep the small spot blasts around the piece all about the same time each time to get a nice even bead around the piece the welder i used actually had a timer to give spotwelds and it worked verry nice

is that a rothweiler ? nice little pup i realy like those dogs (as long as they dont come after me )
my sister had one like that she called it the slangword for antisocial in the netherlands
it was funny when she had to call for him from across the field .... depending on its caracter redneck might be a nice name for the dog and prolly would have about the same effect as the name my sister gave her dog .

Funny he seems like such a nice dog. You can tell he's been working on his ticeps though. Maybe he is tough. You should bring him to the fights tomorrow.:lol: Bet my goat would give him a beat down.:ito:

I had a good working Queensland Heeler cowdog piss off a goat and the goat turned and chased the dog. Goat cornered the dog and went to hooking with the horns. The dog finally got away . The dog never forgot and would not work a goat or sheep after that!! Goats do NOT like dogs!
