Welder repairing a broken shock on my motorbike, in Sikkim (India)
The ring at the top of my right shock broke (that's where the top of the shock gets attached to the bracket on the frame). You can see the shock with the broken ring on this photo.
I was lucky to find a welder in the closest village. His shop was closed and he was home on a day off, but he opened it for me.
Of course he did not have a replacement shock that would fit, but in a pile of mechanical junk, he found an old broken shock from a minibus that had a ring about the same size. He managed to cut it off and arc-weld it to my shock. See also this photo.
Then he had to do some work on the frame bracket since the new ring was slightly larger than the original and would not fit.
After 4 hours of work, my motorbike was fixed. This guy did an excellent job, as the repaired shock never broke again. And this guy charged by the regular price for the work, about $3. I am so grateful. Indian mechanics and welders are so resourceful!

Since its early beginnings as the British Welding Research Association in 1946, TWI has been at the forefront of arc welding development. For instance, we developed carbon dioxide (CO2) shielding for MIG/MAG welding, making the process viable for welding carbon steel, and built the first solid-state power sources, paving the way for thyristor and inverter technology.

Welding and joining technologies are fundamental to engineering and manufacturing. Without the ability to make strong and durable connections between materials it would be impossible to produce the many different items we all rely on in our everyday lives – from the very large (buildings, pipelines, trains and bridges) to the very small (medical implants and electronic devices).
TWI has its roots in welding and joining technology and over many years has been responsible for developing and encouraging the adoption of new techniques and best practice in all industry sectors, providing its Members with the right manufacturing choices first time.

Researchers at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory utilize ArcWeld to assist in computational science. ArcWeld is a radial visualization tool that provides an abstraction for visualizing relationships between multimodal data based on extracted features, identifiers, and metadata. Attributes of the data are visualized through the segments of the radial while similarity is represented through bundled relationship lines among the elements. This visualization aims to bridge the gap between cognitive similarity and computational similarity by summarizing attributes of the data and visualizing relationships across the various media type. Shown here is the ArcWeld visualization with sample multimedia data.

Arc welding repair on my motorcycle rack (India)
Luggage racks on Royal Enfield Bullet motorbike have the tendency to crack and break frequently, due to weak brackets, poor design and vibrations.
This guy fixed my cracked brackets in a small village in Sikkim.
He is arc welding with no protection of any kind, not even welding glasses, which is quite common in poorer areas that only have the bear minimum supplies and equipment. Of course he did an excellent job, and charged me the normal price for the repair (a couple of dollars).

Did as much cutting with the angle grinder as possible before it got too late because that is loud as hell. Welding is pretty quiet, don't think I disturbed the neighbors too much, even though I was at it till around 11pm.

This is the trophy we won at the 2012 Big Boys Toys show at Elim Pentecostal Church in Loughborough. It is an annual event that we have been attending for a few years. In the past we have exhibited our LEGO train set.
This prize was awarded for the The Most Innovative Solution to their Scrap Heap Challenge.
Our team consisted of myself, Son #1 and Daughter #1 (at the time they were 12 and 9 years old).
On that occasion the challenge was to transport a Ping Pong ball across a string that was suspended from one side of the building to the other. Our solution was a build battery powered land vehicle that pulled the ball in a bag via a piece of string. Without prior knowledge of the task, limited time (around 2 hours) and a limited source of parts it isn't an easy challenge!
The top gear had come off the trophy and needed welded back on. I have an Arc welder which isn't used much, the results are messy but its solid.
Now it needs a quick spray...
