The first result from today's trip to Spurn Point. Once again part of my WELD series. 230 Second exposure at f./8.0 ISO 100
Constructive Criticism would be appreciated.

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.

TIG welding (Tungsten Inert Gas)
end of the square tube capped off.
A little tricky welding. It gets too hot too quick.
Aluminum is a big heat sink and starts melting before you realize it.
Most of the seal is made by just fusing the material. Very little filler is used
The pvc pipe in background is my home made fumes extracting device.
This pipe is hooked up to an exhaust fan which sucks all the bad stuff to the outside.
I love working on my hobbies with my younger brother, because it gives me the opportunity to capture these photographs
Construction welding: Electric arc welding all around of large bore underground steel pipe. Worker grinds top weld while lying down welder welds lower half. Pipe is supported by wood blocking/cribbing. Dixboro Bridge, Ann Arbor, 2004
A closer look at the welds. The beads were not perfect and showed signs of low current, but it could be just the thing that did it. They fused well, and I could not knock them off with a hammer.

Crown Equipment uses a virtual welding machine as part of its welder training and qualification program. In addition to improving employee skills, Crown’s virtual welding program has significantly decreased the amount of scrap metal produced through traditional welder training. This initiative is just one element of Crown’s commitment to improving the sustainability of raw materials and its manufacturing processes, as shared in Crown’s recent ecologic™ report.

Friction Stir Welding was invented by Wayne Thomas at TWI Ltd in 1991 and overcomes many of the problems associated with traditional joining techniques. Friction Stir Welding is a solid state process which produces welds of high quality in difficult to weld materials such as aluminium and is fast becoming the process of choice for manufacturing light weight transport structures such as boats, trains and aeroplanes.

Jack stand is kind of in the way here, I should have gone around the other side. I think theres some more welding to be done so I'll get some more next time.
Monday morning, my dad made an OW (please pronounce "oh double-you" to send to his brother.
Here's one with the light levels fixed so you can see what he's doing.
Not uploaded in a long time but I will be starting a new job as a web designer after spending the last year as a graphic designer. I have been looking to getting a new fresh website up and moving soon.
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.
