Examples of "good" chassis welding
So I'm starting on a Haynes Roadster style car soon... I want to see some examples of good, tidy chassis welds to compare my work with - anyone
want to offer theirs?

Here's some of my very first attempts and some critique
http://www.locostbuilders.co.uk/viewthread.php?tid=66206
I'm better than I was, but still not brilliant.
One thing I would recommend is an auto-darkening helmet, and a 100watt spotlight on your workarea.

My dad made my chassis. The rust is from 9 years of being handled.
Its only surface and rubs off with emery cloth.

Can I just add that Sprouts picture and certainly the exhaust headers aren't pictures of MIG welding because I presume that this is what you
want.
