Rian... if this is what they call special these days... then I guess I'm taking the short bus... Your mention of a braai made me really hungry for a Boere wors... on of those things I miss regularly from SA Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Rian whilst I realize two words may not do all your hard work justice it's all I have for you right now; I LIKE!!! Okay maybe a third word! A LOT Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hi Lyndon, Ours threw a bulb this weekend too... And a code... turns out the drive gear on the exhaust gas reflow fails on these. Can't get new gear, so whole new egr valve at almost two hundred euros. What can we do... next car different brand... On that note our Jetta has thrown a few...

Drives, all I can say is you run into some really cool stuff! Might have to build me a pipe bending vise like that! Niels Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Rian, It's great you're taking the time to get the pics back up despite the grievance photof$&@@ had caused! Niels Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hey Lyndon, It Just hit beer o Clock here after a few weeks of getting used to everything being different. Well it's actually beer 2 o clock. I'm not sure [emoji848] where the first beer went... pretty sure I'm suffering from air pixies in the house. Darned things keep replacing the contents...

Thrift stores rarely have tools here (at least the ones near me). Today I got lucky... it's missing some paint but will be a good user. 1 euro Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thank you Lyndon. My grandad was closer to 100 than ninety with severe quality of life reduction in the form of Alzheimer's the last four years... so whilst sad, it was better this way. I had a good look at my little girl just now (she's only two) and thought it must be really nice when they...

Awesome job with the vinegar! I find the black oxide deposit which is left after the soak is similar to gun blueing and an awesome rust inhibitor. Simply spray down with some oil after the soak and good to go! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Congrats to you and yours with regards to the engagement Lyndon! Niels Back from saying final goodbyes to my grandad. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Lyndon great looking box and nice gesture for your brother! Congrats on the upcoming build or sale at the right price. I agree this tactic whether intended or not may work in your favor. Sorry for not posting, I have been lurking as usual. It's been a bit hectic between job switches next week...

You'll love silicon bronze. If you preheat it flows just like a braze! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I agree... as said earlier each weld has its level of critical strength required. A vise tower you definitely want to grab the right stuff as it takes the most load. Another advantage of nickel rod or my personal preference: silicon bronze tig rod is that it seams to lay down so much easier on...

Dont forget the filler material will contaminate with the material that is being welded. Meaning more carbon will seep into the filler from the cast. This will bring the filler closer to the material being welded. The hotter the cast is prior to welding the more contamination will take place...

Andy your clean up is going great! Nice to see you have good help! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
