Re: Rollpan welding tips

lol, yeah that neighborhood isn't too bad, but it's pretty bad for Fresno nowadays. I'm pretty close to Fresno State. I could understand missing CA weather living out there on the east coast, but NY is a pretty cool place to be too.

Update: got the welding finished up, thanks for the idea with the copper, I'm a union plumber and have copper pipe laying around all over the place so that worked out well. A little hard to weld the copper, but I boogered it up and ground it down and it worked.

Just waiting for the filler to to cure, then sand er down, and I'll post some pics after I get it all primered tonight.

Thanks,

-Ray

Re: Rollpan welding tips

Wait you welded the copper? I thought it was for the big gaps so that the wire doesn't go through?

Re: Rollpan welding tips

lol, no, just being a smart ass. Would that even be possible?



Got er all sanded down and primered. Doesn't look to bad. Definitely a few more things on the body that need attention before paint, but getting there.

Thanks for all the help.
