Re: replacing a lower door skin...pics
looks good
 did you spray any sort of rust converter inside the door before welding it back up?

Re: replacing a lower door skin...pics
nice job eb. when I did mine I ended up with a slight bow in along the seam that gave me fits. I could hold a strait edge along the seam and had a bow in the middle about 1/8 to 1/4".

Re: replacing a lower door skin...pics
Damn it Earl
 Everytime I think I do good work I have to see pictures of yours and realize my work sucks compared to yours. I think you cheat and use a ruler to lay out those welds. No matter how hard I try they never look that uniformly spaced. I think you use a robot Great work as always |

Re: replacing a lower door skin...pics
I have four welders. The one I use the most for sheet metal is a little lincoln I got years ago when lincoln was doing a sponsorship deal with some nascar teams. They gave a bunch of them to the teams and gave me one for my personal use.
