I'm with Watahyaknow. You need to reweld it, turn your wire down. I know your not welding with gas because of the way it looks.

But other then that. glad to see some more progress going on the truck. I need to post some stuff on mine!

daverod · 11-21-2009, 11:48 PM

That was just the first pass. I don't turn the heat up the first run because it's so easy to burn through. Usally after about 3 runs its looks normal.

It all gets ground down anyway. Then sprayed with undercoat. On the inside I'll Skim coat the wall with some mud. The floor well get sound matt.

Not so bad.

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.

Thats the truth huh. The only reason I took the picture was because I was so happy I found out how to switch my camera to macro. I was the only thing to take a picture of.

I'm not to worried it all grinds down and you never see it anyway. I knew I was going to hear about it. I love the close up though. It makes it look twice as ugly as it really is.Heres what it looked like after I cleaned it up.

I wished.

Use Spearmint Bubble Gum. It gives a smoother look when welding.

Seriously you are doing a great job. Dave don't listen to anyone.

And Gage keep the digs coming. It keeps us all on the ball.

daverod · 11-22-2009, 03:10 PM

Thanks Dennis I'm sure it nothing you hav'nt seen before.

Hope to get the rest done today. Spent the morning out at the goat ranch.

It's hard work being a goat rancher.

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.

Dave I just saved it. Remember the c notch pic you keep posting on mine. I got you back

watahyahknow · 11-25-2009, 09:37 PM

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 .
