That looks great Scott. Nice clear description of the process.

Beautiful work!

Fantastic visual description of some very nice work. A couple of questions.
he orange magnets seem like a really nice tool to have, can you share the source of those and give any details about them? The bluing on your weld, is it to see the low spots as you planish the weld? This is a great idea that I've not seen, but could be very helpful in finishing a weld, if that is what it's for? What is the process to keep seeing that you are not over shaping, do you keep reapplying the bluing? maybe you could explain in some detail for those of us less knowledgeable. Home hobbyist. TX Mr fixit Chris :) |
Super nice work, Scott.:)
Those "plaster" profiles sure came in handy for the corner pieces. Nice cold shrinks with the mallets. And the "pin" clamps are old school items I don't see used much anymore but they sure do hold tightly - if block holes are still crisp!:) The double-up beadroll move is fun! Love those profile dies and the serious recip machine giving them squish. You got the top ironed and filed out nice, and then the new panel flowed right on in....back side is clean too - (very nice not to see pick marks and harsh tool marks back side ;)). Gold Star work, Scott, and great to see the steps so clearly documented. :) :):D |
Really nice work Scott!
I like your clamp table as well – I can see a job coming up for my milling machine, Cheers Charlie |
Hi Scott
Very nice repair! I Agree With Keith, very good documentation. Thanks for sharing with the membership. Steve |
Nice work loved the tutorial .Cheers Paul

Wow, love the detail and range of tools used. Everything from a pullmax to a piece of berch from the garden! :)

The orange magnets are just a magnet pushed inside a 3D printed holder that I came up with nothing special. The magnets came from aussiemagnets.com.au. http://allmetalshaping.com/picture.p...ictureid=19884 You are correct Chris the blue (marking blue) is to keep an eye on the highs and lows as I am planishing and filing the weld and heat affected zone and yes I keep reapplying the blue as I go. I will try to put together how I go about finishing a weld at some stage, I think some one would have covered the process on this site some where. Chris I am only a home hobbyist myself I just practice practice and more practice :D. |

That means a lot coming from you. The "plaster" profile is just body filler. Kent what do you mean by "pin clamps"? |

Yeah the welding table is heaven but definitely not needed to get the job done. |

Very impressive work, Scott. Thanks for posting such a thorough tutorial.

Thinking on the section below the window that you raised, are your vertical lines parallel, or do they taper in at the top?
Just thinking if I were to duplicate your task, would a taper make up for the loss of material from the cutting process ???? |
