I'm still learning, but I made a wench mount for my trailer.

She may not be purty, but she's mighty handy ! Right up there with the latter rack and the wheelborrow.

I am thinking a man would need a lot of beer to think that a "purty wench".

Well that sux! I guess I need to study grammar also!

I would correct the title if I could. Maybe one of the admins will help me out.

On that note though, back in the old biker days it wasn't uncommon to have wenches hanging around.

The nice thing about Tig is that if you don't like what you get, You can go over it again and again with or without filler rod.

I have did a little of that. Tried to fix one of the welds tonight, didn't really turn out all that well. I ground it out and well re-weld it tomorrow.

<snert>... that reminds me of one evening at a "House of Ill-Repute" in Santo Domingo. The ship's Padre was in attendance, if my memory serves correct :scratchchin:...

Tim I didn't think you welds looked bad at all. Yeah one was undercut there, but overall I would have been happy with them.

Thanks James, Here is the one I fixed or worked on anyway.

Heck me too! That is why I can't go posting my welds. If I do post a project with a weld close up... I will first load the whole project up in my pickup and go over to SA's place! I frequently travel over structures that he had a hand in... and I quietly think and thank him each time! The best thing he taught me starting out... "wear readers under your helmet".
