    Hey Trevor,
    I'm enjoying your blogs a lot. I was inspired by your metal shaping in earlier blogs and have surprised myself in being able to shape some intricate pieces. I bough a 4' section i-beam and use a a dolly for a lot of wide pieces and also for corners. It helps a lot.
    This past weekend I was replacing rusty metal under and above a battery tray that suffered a frost busted busted battery and I noticed the metal would not weld well, even though I cut back to good metal and cleaned off with grinder. It could be the welder as I was on a n extension cord but I did another section earlier in the day w/o problems with same setup.Have you seen metal exposed to excessive battery acid being difficult to weld?
    Best
    Michael

    • @trevsblog

    Hello again Trev! On the subject of TIG, what's your advice on finding argon at a reasonable price? The disposable cans are expensive and last barely more than a few seconds. Air Products are reasonably priced if you are a heavy user but works out expensive for the hobbyist. In between those options there seems to be a wild west of fly-by-night dodgy gas suppliers.

    • @trevsblog
      @trevsblog  3 года назад +1

      Definitely buy a bottle then have it refilled as you go along. Have a chat to Graham that works at Noz.alls 01242 681 052 tell him Trev from Trev’s blog recommended them. Real nice chap and he’ll advise you on what maybe the best way to go. They use good suppliers and deliver good sincere service. Cheers Trev 👍

    An unstoppable force will have equal and opposite force, like the jig you put it in, caused it to distort in all three dimensions, thanks to areas of least resistance.
    You added the forth dimension with time… how long it was hot and malleable for.

If that going to happen lol 🤔🤔 Usly it's when I'm not ready it will be nice then turn Louise for weeks or half nice day's it's what I got to work around 😀👍🏾

  • @jamesford2942
    @jamesford2942 3 года назад

    Nice demonstration of what is actually happening. I welded a roof in a 33 Ford 2 door sedan. I fitted a roof panel of a 55 Chevy station wagon to fill the roof. I scribed the panel from underneath and then cut it 1/16" oversized. I tacked and hammered all the way around to keep the right tightness and up and down of the panel. I then Tig welded the back in one pass so that my heat affected zone was even. The high crown held it very stable. I welded the front the same way but being low crown the heat caused the panel to buckle about 2/3 of the way across. After it cooled I was able to just push it back up and tap the weld a bit to hold the shape. I welded both sides the same way without stopping except to grab another rod but never let it cool. A little grinding and planishing brought it to the point of very little filler. By allowing for the shrinkage by adding to the panel and just letting it shrink I reduced the amount of work to get it back into shape at the end.

    Am painting a whole truck but someone said to apply a 2k epoxy sealer and I already got urethane basecoat and clearcoat but am gonna get the primer later this year after I move to Texas which probably could be December but since they said get a 2k Epoxy primer and sealer was gonna get that too I have everything else to paint my truck which is a midnight metallic blue and changing it to a metallic electric daytona blue which is a lighter blue.

    • @trevsblog
      @trevsblog  3 года назад

      In the uk we typically don’t use sealer. As far as I’m aware it’s a clear primer that you spay on top of the substrate before putting down the basecoat and then clearcoat. It’s apparently used so that you don’t have to spend as much time preparing the panel for paint, even avoid rubbing down altogether! Provided you prepare the panel properly then I can see no real need for sealer, as said I’ve seen thousands of cars painted and we’ve never used it. The absolute best advice I can give you is to paint a small panel from the vehicle with the products you have got, before you paint the whole truck. You then eliminate the problems you may face when you come to complete your paint job. I’ve had many problems painting cars over the years, some of these due to using products that weren’t compatible, but I only found this out after I’d painted the whole job! Cheers Trev

    A question for you Trevor . Having had a BOC account for 40+ years their annual cylinder rental has become vastly expensive ( £140 ea PA ) . I have cancelled Argon, Argoshield and Oxygen and now purchased half size cylinders outright for each from motor factors where now you only pay for refills. However they do not do Acetylene they offer something they call 'fuel gas' which I think is propane based ?. I use Oxy - acetylene for nickel bronze brazing with an in line gas fluxer which I do not want to give up also and oxy acetylene is so good for heating up seized rusted bolts. So do you have experience with this 'fuel' gas will it do the same as acetylene ? It is vastly less expensive when you need the facility but are a low user . BOC do not want to know.

    • @trevsblog
      @trevsblog  3 года назад

      Hi Richard give Noz.alls a call 01242 681 052 speak to Graham (tell him Trev from Trev’s blog sent you👍)he can sort you out with a rent free acetylene bottle, I think they perhaps do three differ sizes in total. BOC is a total waste of time unless you’re using vast amounts of gas. Pure acetylene burns hotter with a tighter flame this cannot be replicated using a mix, perhaps ok for heating up or a bit of brazing but not great for welding as the flame is always a bit lazy. Cheers Trev 👍

    Great video! Finally heat shrink and stretching from welding make
    Sense. How much difference between fission and weld and adding rod?

      Fussion welding (no filler rod)?

      It’s hard to be really objective. I don’t think there’s much in it. The thing with welding is you have to get the metal up to melting point whatever method you’re using. I think that the length of time spent welding probably effects it more and where you join it even more than that. Cheers Trev 👍
