  • Somehow, someway we have managed to film 100 episodes of this show. It happened so fast that I almost didn't notice that the magic number was rapidly approaching. When I did, though, I made plans to celebrate it the best way I knew how-with you guys! You all made this possible. This channel doesn't work without you watching and sharing the information and fun that David Newbern, Mike Cotten and I get to have on a regular basis.
    You guys rock and I want to you to know it so we are gonna have a party on Friday May 8, 2020 @ 8pm EST. During a livestream event right here on this channel I'm going to be giving away Miller Welders auto-darkening helmets, gloves--even a new Multimatic® 220 AC/DC multiprocess welder! All you have to do to get a shot at winning is answer trivia questions correctly. The questions will come directly from information presented in Episodes 9, 49, 65 and 86 of Finnegan's Garage. We'll also ask other random questions so that you can win some Finnegan Speed and Marine swag and memorabilia.
    Every time I tell you it's time to win something you respond with the correct answer in the comment section and the first person with the right answer wins! It's super easy and we are gonna have a blast. In addition to the trivia we'll be answering your most-asked questions, too.
    If you like the Holley 12-147 fuel pump featured in this video you can find more info at:
    www.holley.com/products/fuel_...
    Thanks to Miller Welders for supporting us from the beginning. The Multimatic® 220 AC/DC multiprocess welder can be found at
    www.millerwelds.com/equipment...
    Thanks for 100 episodes of great comments and memories! See ya next Friday.
    -Finnegan

    I'm actually impressed that you used machinist measuring tools to make a prop for those long tig runs. I've been doing it for years. I passed it a long to a select few over the years. Never seen anybody else do it before until now. It's a life saver on those long ac runs. You can go until your glove starts smoking.

    These welders are amazing! I have an almost 5 year old unit (seems hard to believe but I think it's been that long) with the pelican protection case. It's been incredible for farm duty and the light fabrication jobs. Granted I dont strike many stick arcs with it (the engine drive Ranger takes the brute for those jobs), or hook up a tig torch as much as I should (there just isnt many farm projects that really deserve a steady hand and sharpened tungsten), but its mig and flux core capabilities are truly impressive. The duty cycle isnt too long, but for such a small unit it really packs a punch!

I've seen other ESAB's do it as well. I feel the Miller is a much more thought out machine. Menus, documentation... it just all feels and works better in my opinion.

    i like to watch videos where a mistake or i forgot to do always follows with a chuckle then fix what needs fixed and yes a new welder would look real nice in the spot where old one once lived

    A live trivia give-away is genius!

    Didn't know down south was talking in litres. Be careful fuel will get to four times the price. I've got four projects on the go but just got a replacement tig to continue with the progress. A '47, '55 for the little girl and a '96 for the wife which has been all over the house for four years. (Her truck not her FYI). Enjoy watching the life, might get there sum day.lol

    Love your channel Mike and congrats on the 100th show. Loved your one on welding stainless headers. I used work for Stahl Headers for a few years back in the early eighties and man has header building come a long way. By the way about when tomorrow is the show. I looked for a time but did not see anything.

    Friday May 8th is my 10th anniversary and we were supposed to be on a cruise around Italy/Greece. I wish I could be there to enter, but we're going to try to do something fun for the anniversary. Enjoyed the video, good job Mike!
