Stainless is unforgiving .......

Its nice to have high standards mate, but that looks some high end work to me. Beautiful in fact.

Are u meaking a video from this 880 running?

Thanks fellas, but I believe that anyone that welds MUST be their own worst critic ! It’s the only way to keep honing that edge, and I definitely see room for improvement, especially in the fitup. That will make the playing with liquid & welder settings a little easier

I'd be happy with those welds. Stop looking at those perfect stack of dimes welds people post when the material is perfectly clean and so is the part fit!

I am, but not sure when. It’s going to take some BIG wood to get a good feel for her ...........

I have plan !

I faintly remember Doc saying he had some of that for you?

Going through my tubing scrap i came across this section of side by side barrels I had cut years ago to make a coach gun. I figured why not!!

He cut pretty much everything .........

Ive got a blowdown that should work out pretty good, it’s a little dangerous, but with a days cutting, the big section will be safe and ready for dropping. Pictures just can’t show the size and difficulty of this thing. The wind twisted it as it went over, but the trunk broke at chest height, and kept a good hold on it too. I’ma see if I can get a few pictures tomorrow

Not a fan of the nostrils ....?????

They do a great job of getting the exhaust away from the operator and his hands

I have no experience with ‘nostrils’ plural, I do like the singular ‘nare’

Excellent point. That’s why I stump with a ragged old 288. The muffler in the pic is on a 371 that I’m partial to for some reason, but she don’t stump.
