More Boring Welding..
This time it's Aluminum!!
Roller in the positioner.. This is where the bearing was spinning and banging everything out of shape.. And it's pretty dirty too.. What do we do with dirty Aluminum? Acetone and a stainless brush.. All clean now.. And all welded back up.. 180 amps.. Gas mix.. 3/32" Red End.. 1/16"4043 filler.. 45 mins.. It will be machined tomorrow.. Got lots of welding to do today.. I get all the fun jobs..  ...zap!

Re: More Boring Welding..
Nice job. I like your end roller device, I'm going to have to remember that one. Is 3/32" filler to big to use? It would seem you would have to really shove that 1/16" in at high rate to get that much build up. You seem like you get quite a bit of those shaft jobs. What kind of uses are they for?

3/32 would work but its better to use small wire to get into "tight" places along with the torch and your hand in there at the same time..  These are usually rubber covered after and then used in material handling.. ...zap!
