    Greetings WW

    Just a quick hello, I'm not sure if I get to call myself a real welder yet, but I'm trying.
    here's a half a chess set I knocked out last week on my little Lincoln Weld-Pak 100 running .035" FCAW, The king and queen are 1.5" schd. 10 with a few layers of stringers on them, containing a partial vacuum (sealed them up on the ends with weld while hot). The rook, knight and bishop are the same pipe, cut into thirds and capped with the scraps, topped with cross sections of brazed samples, the pawns are super thin (<.035") 1/2" carbon steel with nickel brazed stainless caps. Looking to start working as a welder in BC. what's next?
