Welding cache projects.


Recommended Posts

If you have an artistic bone in your body...

 

Talk to the city parks people, and ask them if you can design and create a sculpture to place in one of the city parks. Let them tell you what the theme might be (city history, something to honor a well-known local, etc.)

Design and create your sculpture, and use several (like 10-15) ammo cans in the design. All but one of the ammo cans are carefully welded shut.

Oxy Acetylene welding/cutting

SMAW "stick" welding

FCAW and GMAW are what I am most skilled with.

Sadly no TIG yet but that is what I will learn in the fall. Hopefully I will be good at it since it is similar to Oxy acetylene.

 

:blink: If you thought Oxy acetylene welding is hard, wait until you try out TIG! :ph34r:

 

For art design, TIG is the way to go.

 

Was a welder for 10 years. Shhhh, dont tell anyone.

OAW is the first thing I learned. It is my one of my favorite kinds of welding actually.

That's fantastic! Have you seen something like that, or did you just come up with that?

 

Just my WILD imagination! :)

 

I think I was influenced by an old thread wherein Lil Devil discussed a cache that involved a large number (40-50-60?) of ammo cans in his driveway.
