Well first of all, welding 1/4" stainless I'd rather use a water cooled torch.
Secondly, there seems to be a delamination issues in between his deposits, very distressing
Last but not least, I call bullshit because there's no way a respectable welder would polish his stainless welds before taking a picture. I want to see those oxide colors ! OP is posting other people's welds.
I'd argue that doing full penetration titanium welds in a purging booth is 1000x more difficult than a butt joint on pipes in a 6G position with a wall 2 inches from the pipe.
Pipe welders are over rated imo, from my experience and what I've seen get a passing grade in the field.
Perfect? Looks like you welded your piece to the table. Maybe next time you won't get carried away with going for the worlds longest and most perfect bead ever. /s

I'm not falling into your trap so you can make fun of me (I'm tig insecure, geez). I already know you'll claim my TIG welds were gas welded with a propane torch on pot metal.
Almost all my TIG work has been on material that varies in thickness across the bead, so my application is generally more of a challenge. I have to really control the heat as I move along or I'd literally burn through some areas and not penetrate others. I've also run into a lot of contamination issues in the past, and we all know how that ends.
I'll post something when I cherry pick some of my best work ;) Actually, I should post my best and worst. That would be funny.
Post your projects! Post whatever is welding related.
Discuss technique and share resources, NO shitting on people that are trying to learn ! No shitting on people at all would be great, mmmkay ?
Your fears are not founded on this great subs culture, simply on your reticence to expose your non-perfect work. I understand that, I too have a big ego when it comes to my work.
So, can we get a feature to disable CSS on a per-sub basis? I'm thinking like a button on the side bar you can click when you want to nope the fuck out of a particular sub's design. This one is actually making me nauseous.

I'd post my stuff here but I try to stay humble.

Don't worry, we'll shit on you whether it's good or bad.
Evileddie13 ago
Can anybody weld pipe? I think that is the highest standard of welding.
Rotteuxx ago
That's very subjective.
I'd argue that doing full penetration titanium welds in a purging booth is 1000x more difficult than a butt joint on pipes in a 6G position with a wall 2 inches from the pipe.

I'm planning on releasing an entirely new css/js infrastructure, which would handle this.
ThisIsMyRealName ago
Awesome! Thanks.
TheWorstImaginable ago
Is this an experiment or just a joke?
Thyhorrorcosmic103 ago
Its a joke. Its a common saying that a bead should look like a row of dimes.
TheWorstImaginable ago
I was hoping someone was trying to weld by heating the coins
Oveass ago
Ah, almost full marks, torch could have been a hair blower or a bottle of beer on a stick

Idk there is not much penetration ¯
