Figured I would take a pic without all the insulation. Welding glove for perspective. The center section still has to go up a good 6" yet. But I gotta get the back caught up.

Evening fellas

So you are just filling that with weld? And what is that?

I got filtered forced air into the hood.

Even has a little chiller inline. Nice cool air flowing.. absolutely miserable when the hose pops off lol

Glad to hear that. Breathing that stuff in for 12 hrs at a clip ain't good for you.

Nice it sounds similar to a auto painting fresh air set up.

ive never used the fresh air setup but i have seen it and it looks like it would be a pain unless your in one place all the time and something taking the weight of the hose off your neck

From this.

This is one I welded up 2 years ago. The current one has more cut out.



To this once we/I mill it all off.

This ^^ is a smaller press, but it is the same concept, welded up and milled flat.

 

[dall]

joe what is the estimated weight of what your putting back in before milling off

Similar.

It is, and it does.

I just have to cool air flowing, blows the smoke out of the hood.

But I'm not moving around. Just sit in the chair and lean. The hose is a pain most the time, I tried to wire it to the wall, it melted in two lol.

Is it real humid?

Wire weight will be between 13-14k actual weld weight will be 6-8k I'm not sure on the loss rate with the slag.

The last pad we did, took 3/8" from high to low on a 48x70" pad. We impressed ourselves with that one. But they screwed up and had us put 1 1/2" to much to begin with. That sucks hogging out that much. This will probably be the same way, cause they don't have a clue what components are going to be used for assembly.

I'd like to see some pics of the milling setup when the time comes. If you're allowed.
