+1 on getting Tech involved early, Grumm must be getting sick of my emails but at least we should avoid a WTF moment when I'm finished, hopefully......

Cheers

Here are some pics of Dave Chiotti our Master Welder! He had the foot control under one cheek of his butt and would just rotate his hips to start the arc and control the amps. Totally out of position but getting it done.

That's why those of us who have attained a little more maturity (girth) prefer to use rotisseries, or flopping the chassis around on stands or a bench, etc.  :roll: :roll: :-D

This continues to be another amazing build. Keep up the great work.  :cheers: :cheers: :cheers:

   I looked at that picture inside the chassis, and my first thought was: "Damn, how many times would my head bounce off of the frame before I got it undercontrol when a spark went down the neck of my shirt". Hell of a welder, and great self control.

Maybe it should be ' Totally out of Control but getting the job done ' great build !!

Back in my gasser days i was doing a vertical stick weld on the frame, and a little dingle berry landed in my ear and i could hear it sizzeling in the wax but could not stop the weld. Ah the fun days of racing!!

Bill;

I set my hair on fire while torch welding-- no fun at all!  :-P

I was told a long time ago that if you are welding and smell fire.  "STOP" and put yourself out :-D :-D

Life is an abrasive. Whether you get ground away or polished to a shine depends on what you are made of.
