Re: Daverods project 66
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 mig 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

Re: Daverods project 66
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!

Re: Daverods project 66
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.

Re: Daverods project 66
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.

Re: Daverods project 66
Use Spearmint Bubble Gum. It gives a smoother look when welding.

Re: Daverods project 66
Finished the floor and sides. Started beating on my cab supports with a hammer and screw driver. More rust. Ordered some cab supports. Looks like I'll have plenty to do this winter.
