  • This week we do some fad work for a startup recycling company.
    We power tap some 316SS with a old but awesome power tapping head and do some tig welding.

    Steve, I've been living with cluster headaches for 15 years. My worst cluster was up to 8 attacks a day for 7 months. People hear headache and think "so what". They want to compare it to migraines, but they don't come close. Knowing the extraordinary pain and the impact on quality of life as I do, I have enormous respect for your wife fighting on and enormous respect for a committed partner living with the helplessness it will make you feel. Just know that during an attack, there isn't anyone or anything that can provide comfort, no matter how hard they try. Doing your best to understand the condition is the best thing you can do. I'm not a religious man so can only keep you both in my thoughts and wish you the best.

    Hi Steve, good to see you back! If you share something going on in your life with friends, it's not really complaining. It's just saying what's going on. A wise man once said something to the effect of "If you share a trouble, that trouble is diminished by half". Anyway, glad to see a new video. Put them out whenever you can, and I will watch them.

Love doing projets like these. We get to play with all our toys, do some head scratching , the works. Hmm, Stainless.

    I worked at a zinc refinery that used sulfuric acid and there much 316 stainless. We had a ball mill similar to that but much larger. (Concrete mix truck size.) I was in production but learned much from our maintenance. Someone told me once I was bird-dogging. I was just learning by watching, nd was sometimes their gopher. I remember welding 316 that it doesn't always stay straight.
    Very good video.
