Lol
-
what? no paper/sun glasses?
-
hes rocking the "safty squint" ;)
-
haha.... good thing he has dark skin... or he'd have one hellava sun burn :P
-
Bet that weld will hold though!
-
I guess they can do that in places where you have ~1% relative humidity. Just pray some big rat/bug doesn't hide in or chew the wires...

MacGyver would be proud.

now that's "ghetto fab"
-
wow, I want to be just like that guy when I grow up. :-\

MacGyver would be proud.
and his son MacGruber

Fuck that, MacGyver would have used a nickel and set of jumper cables.

gravitational pull of the moon, a nickel and jumper cables

An AC stick welder is really that simple.All it is is a step down transformer. If you look into this you will find out that you can build one from romex wire from home depot,a roll of steel banding material,and a roll of masking tape.
-
true but how do you control the amperage? i would love to wind my own welder from wire but the welding industry which makes welding machines takes care of that for us

would either make the secondary coil movable or use the center tap method. Basically you would wrap a bunch of banding material in a hoop and rool it up a bunch of times. If you can run some masking tape between each layer that would be a plus. Then you would wrap the whole roll in tape. Then for the primary VS secondary coils you would want about a three(primary) to one(secondary).120 windings on primary and 40 windings would equal 30v on a 120v circuit or 60v on 220v. Generally you would want 30 or so volts and you will have a decent amp.
Now if you tap into the secondary every 10 coils or so you will be able to adjust voltage and amps by which set of how many coils you choose.

This guys in the middle of nowhere welding, I'm sure hes happy being the only welder within 1000 miles.

wtf would you weld on a bike?

they probably had a half ton on their head riding the thing around and broke the frame lol

they fucking ran 100 shot of NOS and blew the welds on the intake manifold.

I weld like that everyday 8)
