Random stuff you have made

Well, I feel like I'm taking this thread over. Surely some the rest y'all been building something?
Today I built a welding jig/fixture for welding the spur shanks to the heelbands. I've got a plan for clamping the band in place. I'll have to address that tomorrow.

@Cowcatcher - I, for one, am thoroughly enjoying watching your progress. I don't have the skills or equipment to accomplish what you do on a daily basis. I really admire your work!

I’m building a heck of a buzz at the moment!

Today I decided to go ahead and mig weld this pair. Then I got to see if I could blend everything together with the 2x72 grinder. I've still got a ways to go but I'm pretty happy with how these are shaping up.

Looks good! Couldn’t tell if it was mig or tig after you were done.

Yeah I may have messed up. My wife saw em and said, "Ohhhhhhh, I thought you HAD to have a tig welder cuz a mig welder wouldn't work?!" I said, "Well, see these lil slag "bb's" everywhere?" She then hit me again with "You bought the fancy 2x72 for grinding and it seems to take care of em fine. ". I'm still gonna get a tig but I'll have to be sharper on how I play this I need a new tool game in the future!
