[Chevelle-list] Welding question

I have a Lincoln Electric HandyMiG (#20580) 110V welder and a little Clarke 95E (#WE6490) stick welder. The MiG welder has been doing a great job at welding my rotisserie (which is almost complete!). The Clarke machine just couldn't get good penetration even when we cranked the power all the way

Re: [Chevelle-list] Chevelle World arrived today

That's definitely some good news about the magazine improvements. It definitely sounds like you have been busier than a grasshopper in a henhouse this year.grin Trust me,all of us ACES members appreciate all you do. More than most,I know just how much work it is running an organization this size.

I wonder if that is the stuff from that farm with all the trailers full of stuff? Great stuff. mike --- Brad Olson [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: There are a couple of Chevelles and a lot of Chevy parts: http://vanderbrinkauctions.com/items/details.asp?ID=179ItemType=AUCTIONShowAllPhotos=True

Re: [Chevelle-list] Welding question

Hi Karl, I use a Hobart handler 140 w/ shielding gas on most sheetmetal work. I run the heat at 3 and speed around 35. If I burn through I will either back the heat off or increase wire speed to 50ish. Usually the wire speed and keeping my hand moving takes care of the blow through.

Re: [Chevelle-list] Welding question

Thanks for the responses, Wayne and Jim. So what you're saying is *faster* wire speed might help? I'll try that tonight on some scrap fenders I have. Karl Groves Master Certified CIW http://www.karlgroves.com Grayscale Content Management System: http://www.grayscalecms.com Independent

That and to make sure the gas is not being blown away and sheilds your weld. Jim -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Karl Groves Sent: Tuesday, August 29, 2006 1:24 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; 'The Chevelle Mailing List' Cc: 'The Chevelle

Wish I was closer.Even if I couldn't afford any of it. That looks like a once in a lifetime auction.It would be difficult to NOT find something that interests you. Hemmings said that thetrailer stuff from a few months ago went to the East Coast somewhere. On 8/29/06, mike f [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: [Chevelle-list] rotisserie

I noticed that Karl is building a rotisserie and wondered if any of you guys had blueprints of any rotisserie's you have built. I found some good ideas on the net but thought I would run it by you guys too. I am in the gathering material stage and now would be a good time to get everything I

Re: [Chevelle-list] rotisserie

This is the basis for my rotisserie: http://www.harwoodperformance.bizland.com/1941buick/Editorial_20.htm I've made a number of modifications, because I feared it wouldn't be able to handle my Chevelle. Most notably, I think the Chevelle is too wide to actually rotate at the dimensions specified.

Re: [Chevelle-list] Welding question

I'll go in a direction nobody else has yet and ask, what size wire are you running? I've had great success on thin gauge steel with .025 solid core wire and shielding gas. You can also weld thin stuff with .035 but the technique is different. Also, don't forget to tack weld, move, tack

Re: [Chevelle-list] Welding question

Dan - I'm using .035 flux core right now. I also have .025 and shielding gas, but probably won't use it because I don't havean enclosed space to weld in (and it can get kinda windy where the car is). Karl GrovesMaster Certified CIWhttp://www.karlgroves.comGrayscale Content Management

Re: [Chevelle-list] Welding question

Hi Karl, The problem with the .035 flux core is the amount of heat required to turn it liquid is sometimes a bit hotter than is required to puddle the base material. Thats why you get blow thru. Maybe see if a local welding supply store offers the flux core in an .025. you'll need to
