Crude, but effective. Lots of welding practice here.
3/4" x 065 A36 hot rolled seamed square tubing (doesn't weld too cleanly) for the frame.
0.125" 1018 cold rolled strip (welds better) for the caster mounting pads.
I was very frustrated with the stick welding objectives, so I switched to TIG and it was just as fun as I remembered and I'm pretty good for a novice, too.
Welding a grating that must stand up to vehicle traffic on a beachfront property. Four welds per joint.

Just one of the many workers working to get the Kansas Sub up and running in Grantville, KS. Grantville is about 60 miles west of Kansas City and was the site of a rather messy wreck in 2012, when the UP dumped about 20 cars on the ground in this tiny town.

The sixth of just 14 left-hand drive, B-series Continentals produced for the model year.
• Wears stunning and original 2+2 Sports Saloon aluminum coachwork by Park Ward; one of the very few fitted with this body style.
The S1 Continental, introduced in 1955, featured the last of Bentley’s long-lived six-cylinder engines, which, being a Rolls-Royce design, was smooth and silent but also appropriately powerful. An exceptionally rigid welded box-section chassis was mounted on a new front suspension that had a semi-trailing wishbone and repositioned rear springs, which improved handling and softened the ride, while a three-way safety braking setup enabled sure stops at the end of those high-speed journeys. The rear suspension was electrically controlled, and it could be changed to “normal” or “hard” by a switch on the steering column.
While successive V-8-powered S2 and S3 Continentals were offered until well into the 1960s, many viewed the S1 as the model to have; it is simpler, lighter and slightly quicker, and it accomplishes all this while still being luxuriously comfortable in the British tradition.
THE PARK WARD SPORTS SALOON, STYLE 648
At the 1956 Earls Court Motor Show, the Bentley/Rolls-Royce in-house coachbuilders, Park Ward, debuted a new streamlined 2+2 sports saloon body upon the S1 Continental chassis BC44BG.
Benefits:
-Oscilating laser focus results in wide weld bead in a single path.
-High quality weld from the side or through the top plate eliminates flipping of large plates.
-Self-fixturing tab&slot design eliminates tooling.
-Process enables complex geometries.

My first attempt to shoot street in a long while now. I wasn't as thrilled as I thought I would be. I think I'll stick to still life and other non-living things.
This man has been working with this metal rack throughout the summer. I think its for the stuff he sells in his store in the tunnel at Slussen.

At ReStore in Edgewood looking for cheap parts I stumbled upon a welding torch. Replace the upperpipe with something longer and the bottom with an illuminated tube of some sort and this will become a steampunk lightsaber.

Found in a vacant trade school: A 1942 Jam Handy instructional filmstrip on the delicate art of welding aluminum tubes.
Today I was looking through my archives looking for stuff that I might be able to pitch to a market and might have missed. Two years ago I photographed workers welding new steel rails near my home and documented the process. I uploaded the shots to my website today and then e mail picthed to a couple of big companies to see if they might be interested in buying licences to use some of the shots.
The Heath-Robinson process involves "aluminothermic welding".
A granular mixture of aluminium metal and powdered ferric oxide is ignited in a kind of movable coldron. The reaction generates amazing heat and the molten result is poured into a clay mould over the joint gap between the rails to be welded. The mould is broken away and the weld is then ground smoothe while still red hot.
To see more shots of the process check out my latest addition to my website gallery here :-

One for Josh... Browndog-wear goes global! Been meaning to upload something like this for a while. Although it would probably look better with just the shirt, and not that ugly git wearing it.
