- Here is bottom case half from a two stroke dirt bike. It is damaged and needs repair. As you can see in the video it has a crack that needs to be welded and then dressed smooth. I used my TIG welder, die grinder, and Dremel for the job. Enjoy!
Great job, good to watch 🙂
Great job and looks awsome
Very well done!
Wow good to see someone who knows what they are doin. Wanna weld my case to 😂
Great Job!
Nice! I have one of these to do today, wish me luck lol.
Good luck!
Good job
On case repairs, used mixed wave form at relatively low frequency.
Well i had someone weld my case, but there are still cracks on the gasket surface.
I bought a dremmel kit, so I'm going to do exactly what you did to mine, get it notched out and pay someone to weld it
surprised you didn't finish off with a sheet of wet-n-dry on a plate of glass for a perfectly flat mating surface. . . kitchen Formica benches suffice. . .and yes, it has a thick paper gasket,
Super, Are you a AC tig and thick tungsten?
Lincoln precision tig 185 set to AC using 1/16 tungsten. I should’ve used my 3/32 tungstens!
I tried aluminum wire and argon in my mig and didn't have much luck. Are tumgsten sticks better? I have a stick welder as well. Thank you.
I was told by a neighbor to heat it up a bunch of times (not too much or anything) because he says it will help get oil out of the metal. Is there any truth to this or should I just rely on brake cleaner? Thanks for the video, I'm excited to tackle a very similar project!
I haven’t heard that one. Cleaning it well and removing the surface oxides and contaminants with a file has always worked for me.
