Thats the Best copy of a feather that I have Seen !! It looks real !

yes they make an .045 Al Tig rod they mite make a .035 But Thats is small & hard to see !!! if your welding 6061 Al you need 5056 Rod 4043 Rod will try & crack in the center of weld to soft a rod for 6061 ck welding supply in your area may not have it on shelf but they should be able to order it & yes all mig wire is the same thing in tig rod just in rolls & tig rods are straight 3' long

mig or Tig will work could torch weld just take,s more time also

Nice !

One Word Darwin ! & one less Gee

Yea Nice Design Keep It Up !

could rework that into a dishing hammer ?

thats Shelby tubing sold by the " NOT cheap !! stuff -- great for building any type pipe hing for say a dump bed also could use for hoist swing arm hing just need a pin i would put to the side to nice to forge just cause for blacksmithing have no good Ideas sorry ! Steve's Welding

Not you LOL I was just saying most folks I tend to ever so often do it the hard way then look @ it Then the Brain /? asks why did we just do that way instead of the Easy Way LOL

where from ?

I Love the Idea !! Great work ! I think that Idea could sell well ! A fire pit with soul

You Know Frosty sometimes you Forget the Simple way to do things and then Do It the Hard way !! LOL

Yep John dialed it in , I have done this & works well for cast iron * Henrod torch is SO Cool !! Great for brazing also !! & can cut as Good as a Plasma torch once you get used to it & run's on 4 Psi ox/ac so saves gas money for something else ! I hardly ever use my victor torch anymore Steve's Welding

LOL

Ok will play with your Idea I still have more parts in the bucket ?? should next one be a bit higher than the first one or the same or as close as the tubing crush will allow
