Ron -- Rustic here from St. Augustine. Your closing statement touched me so... In candor, I was always encouraged by my Dad to the point of letting me build a stock car and weld my own roll bars. When I was launched over the fence in turn two, I remember turning off the ignition, hunching down in my seat and thinking: "I hope those roll bars hold..." They did. Carry on and sincere best wishes.

PM me an address and I'll send you some filler metals.

I posted some photos in a couple of threads using the Welcote wire in my Titanium 170 Mig . I like it. It welds so smooth with very little spatter and hardly any sparks thrown off like the Vulcan wire does. I was using 19.2 volts and 300 IPM wire speed.

I will take those if you wont be needing them

Hi Muhammad

I see with your new forums, you are using the XenForo software. Another tractor site that I mod/admin on went to it a few months ago. Over there, we have the option of a dark mode background. Have to thought of using that? I find it much easier on my old eyes...lol. Just a suggestion
Also, are you thinking of changing TBN over to XenForo?

Love the welding forum,
