Never mind the book, feel the weld !

I think the problem was too many amps, from too far, at bad angle, ....

I've found a PDF from Miller (Principles of shielded metal arc welding) that is helping me a lot.

By the way James, ther is only one think of the whole project I've have clear: The anti- rust primer.

The MadSorley chasis is a piece of a garden door that was painted more than 30 years ago and in the pieces I've used I haven't found any rust.

It was painted when I was about 16 years old. Thanks Mr. Ramisa for using the "imprimación de minio de plomo" and do it so well !!!

If I had painted my Enghish with this !!!
