Made this stainless exhaust for a 69 Camaro. All Purge Tig welded 304L.

 

[Caveman Jim]

And loaded the first 100 rounds tonight after the load development bullets from last week.

Those are some of the most gorgeous welds I've ever seen!
Quite jealous right now. ( )

Built mostly in August but completed today. Carport number two, this one for my '72 Ford Ranch Wagon. About 50% recycled materials. The crushed rock was the single most expensive material component.



(those are not red lights but reflectors reacting to camera flash)



The roof material consists of metal panels salvaged from a boat shed in the Everett marina. They aren't designed for such a low pitch roof so I sealed the seams with silicone sealer. We just had a heckofa thunderstorm. I went outside and checked after a period of heavy rain, no leaks.

I finally made an action and barrel vise to go along with the action wrench I made a long time ago.

I'm well on the way to completing a 1940's era Express Refrigerator car in 1/32nd scale - Gauge 1 - to run between my Royal Hudson loco and the passenger consist...all scratch-built using scaled drawings provided by a fellow Gauge 1-er in Ottawa.

You wait till it's finished!!!!

 

[Zathras]

Floor to ceiling 79" wide shelves (torsion boxes). It pales in comparison to other stuff I've seen posted here - some real craftsmanship. For me, I was just happy to see it all square and level .

Those are awesome. What welding process did you use?

Thanks. Certainly not the same techniques as @Tomahawk67. He's got the mad skills and could probably weld a dick on a snowman.

I, on the other hand, am a rank amateur. Finally retired and got some oxy gear and a MIG 135 "booger blaster." That was MIG on stainless spoons/legs with steel heads, beaks and tailfeathers.

I've made three beers disappear, a bucket of .556 swaged for .223 AND made a flathead screwdriver and a tape measure into bottle openers... tried to use a plug as a bottle opener but found it was too pliable..

Edit: just made a can of Starting Fluid into a bottle opener and IT WORKS!!!!

 

[DeanMk]

I've made the top of a table into a bottle opener....in fact, when I got too drunk to pop the top on a bottle that way, I literally had to stop drinking.....aaaahhhhhhh

This is the last house I built, when I could still do such things:

 

[Caveman Jim]

Built by my son and I in 2001, 30x48x11 pole building while I was able to do construction.
Costco carport for staging a late garage sale...

 

[DeanMk]

Man, you guys are good!

 

[slimmer13]

Got sick of looking at my jacked up power meter, right in the middle of my yard, so I built a coverup. Turned out ok (looks like an outhouse)

 

[ZoidMeister]

Awesome thread. I cannot believe it took me this long to find it.

I enjoy making pistol stands, primarily for 1911's.
