Welding machine in Mpulungu, Lake Tanganyika's southern port. Not necessarily safe, but getting the job done.
Christine Harlan and Dawn Beck learn to Arc Weld and cut steel with the Oxy-Acetylene torch. Christine made a flower for the school sculpture hill and Dawn a heart for her garden.
A friend was doing some welding so I decided to try my luck at getting some close-up shots. We had a good system where I'd focus on the spot, shut my eyes really tight and then he'd start. When I heard sparks, I shot. Got some pleasing results.
Closeup of my welds. I'm trying to re-train myself to weld. Haven't done much welding in 5 yrs. I've got a ways to go before I'm good again.
Getting ready to remove the "stumps" that used to support the parking deck. I think this contraption is meant to go down in the muck and cut them off. (Or maybe it's supposed to shake them loose like a pile driver action in reverse?)
My first ever attempt at welding. An utter failure as a weld, but a stupendous success as a piece of art.
repaired this by TIG welding brass.
minor polish needed to get rid of heat discoloration.
you'll never see where I fixed it :)
