I see you have the same MIG welder as I do. Do you ever feel the need for a TIG? I certainly could use one.

I love my Miller 180. It performs very well. No complaints.

I always have a need to TIG. I let my friend handle the TIG for me. He is better than I and his welds look like liquid art. For the cost of a six pack it doesnt pay for me to purcahse a TIG unit.

Funny part is we did a test. I welded 35 gauage sheet steel with a MIG by using a really long ground cable. My welds came out better than his. The TIG could not be turned down enough and the bead was to proud. Everything has limitations.

We then turned to sheet aluminum. I gas welded mine and we did a distruction test which passed. The bead looked more like a blend with gas.

The TIG was a work of art on thin aluminum sheet. Nothing compares.

I always have a need to TIG.

BTW: I started a bathroom remodel so I stepped back from the 14 for a bit.

You had me worried there for a sec. I thought maybe you had to sell the project.

I never get rid of anything it seems.

Been busy... not as much as I'd like but busy.

Trouble I have now is all the stuff from the house remodelling in the garage.

A little time out for play.

Stopped by my friend Chris' house for an overdue visit. Hey and it only has just shy of 4700 miles on it.

Things that spin!!

Most people don't think about this or even know about it. 1st and 2nd order vibrations. When things that spin go round and round they generate vibrations. Crankshafts, cams..etc. What you don't want in something that spins is an orbit or spinning off center due to imbalance by whatever cause. This creates a whole mess that I understand mentally but would rather not deal with. So I leave this to the professionals.. The guys who balance stuff that spins.

This is where the drag racing guys come into play. As they say if it spins balance it! We all understand that balancing is not just cool but critical.

Flywheel machined and brand spanking new Sachs Aluminum Power Clutch. Lets see how good the Sachs quality control is from a dynamic standpoint? Surprisingly it was lackluster.

Enter Dave Kemblowski aka "The Balance Shop"

Flywheel, ring gear and pressure plate balanced as a rotating assembly. I was surprised at how much material was removed to properly balance the new Sachs pressure plate. For the whopping sum of $45 Dave balanced the entire indexed assembly to exceed Porsche specification which normally is just the flywheel.

Check out the bore's that were drilled. Thats a lot of material. Small price to pay. Some may recall that Porsche had an issue with flywheel bolts loosening. This was rectified later with revisions and adding 3 more bolts to the flywheel. Like I said small price to pay.

Damn Red Heads again. This one showed up at 3:00am and didn't leave for two days. Made all sorts of racket. They have an odd Narcissistic sense of entitlement. Go away!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Enough.......
