Interesting thread and info.


I can appreciate info from those that have been there with stick in hand.
Absolutely! In this case the Fitters are fitting the piece together 7018 will bend and distort if needed without breaking. Once the entire piece is put together with ends and those seams will be fitted with 7018 also I would assume. Once it is all together it could be welded with a Flux Core Mig on the inside then grind out the seams to expose the inside weld to the outside. There by welding it with a Flux Core Mig or by Stick from the outside making it a a full 100% weld.
