Agreed, and thanks for the support. School is picking up a TON of momentum. We had our first exam and I demolished the grading curve ...making 45 guys fail... :D
I was in class thinking.... "What would Allan Do?" You'd be proud... lol

Re: My 1965 build thread
 

Good to hear you're doing so well . How many people in your class?

4. Technician A says that magnesium parts should be welded using a GMA (MIG) butt joint with backing.

Technician B says that when welding magnesium, a magnesium electrode wire should be used to help ensure good weld quality.

Who is right and why?

*Technician A says that a tailor-rolled blank may have different types of steel designed into each part.

Technician B says that a tailor-rolled blank is a seamless structure with varying thicknesses.

Who is right?

And if you catch your edit fast enough (within 5 minutes) you get your edit button back before it's permanent.:metal:

Re: My 1965 build thread
 

Lookin good Alan.

Re: My 1965 build thread
 

nope b then a

i didnt see the why.. b kinda.. well you can tig it. so mig only whould not be correct.

a. because it hould be the same thickness.

Re: My 1965 build thread
 

Don't worry about what I would do......I'd run out of the building screaming. :haha:

The edit button is back like it use to be. I can go back and edit stuff I posted yesterday or even 2 years ago. Thank you to the staff.

Thanks Jason:metal:

Re: My 1965 build thread

In regards to structural automotive applications you are not allowed to repair or weld on Magnesium or Ultra High Strength Steel at all.

The tailor rolled blank is one seamless piece that has a hydraulic roller form it to create thin spots for crumple zones.

I'll take whodunits for 1000 Alan.

Where's pics?

Re: My 1965 build thread
 

Magnesium can catch fire? Am I right? I know VW engine cases are made of it, and will make a very bright camp fire that's hard to put out. :devil:

Re: My 1965 build thread
 

Yes magnesium will burn and the only way to put it out is to eliminate the oxygen from it.

Re: My 1965 build thread
 

Not in the shop today. Spending my day in the kitchen..............no not cookin. Paintin' walls. Yeeeeee.....Hawwwww. Ya'll have a safe and happy 4th

Re: My 1965 build thread

Re: My 1965 build thread
 

So this is what you do on a Holiday Weekend? Man some people never get a break. :lol:
I was going to say you should at least have a bruski in your hand, but I remembered you don't do that any more. Have a good 4th.

Re: My 1965 build thread
 

Have a great one. I've been doing my yard, then got called out for some computer jobs. I wonder if our trucks will ever hit the road (again). :rolleyes:

Re: My 1965 build thread
 

I hope so. Mine was off the road for about 9 years before I bought it. At least it's getting attention now. Hope to be running before the end of the year.

Re: My 1965 build thread

Re: My 1965 build thread
 

I gotta ask what is a H100

The only time I get to rest is when I'm asleep.:lol: I am taking a vacation in one more week. Going camping close to home.
