well done mate, coming together nicely :top:

I don't want to take the piss, but the most constructive advise I could give you would be to get some lessons in welding.
Most local colleges run evening classes. I would say you need a higher setting to get penetration. Most of your welding appears to sit on top of the metal. But well done for the work so far, keep going!! |
constructive critisism totally welcome somone had mentioned turn the power and wire feed up and welding ive done since that bit is miles better
https://i243.photobucket.com/albums/...a/DSCF0051.jpg built my 1300 up :D |
yay im told this came of a 1340 formula ford belting a whopping 120 brake :DD: :cry:
