Show Us Your Welding Projects!

Very nice job , wish you were close to me , I need something done with my handicap van. Since I can't do it myself. I like to see a man who does work with a great eye for detail.

If you where close to my location, I would certainly help you out my friend.
 
Well the powder coaters got the nerf bars blasted and coated ahead of schedule. They where actually ready yesterday but I was on shift unable to pick them up until today.

The hardware was treated to a dash of anti-seize and lock washer added.

Lastly a couple of shots from a 3 Alarm fire we had last night. incredibly hot fire melting cars (plastic parts) across the street and catching palm trees a blaze from 70 + yards away. Freaking crazy night.

Four story student housing project University of Arizona.
Notice the power pole on fire from the radiant heat.

Hard to believe it rained for two days over the weekend soaking the building materials.
Stay cool fellas,
Turn and Burn!

Beautiful work!
The heat from a structure fire is truly amazing and hard to understand unless you have stood nearby. keep up the good work on both fronts!

Not sure I understand what the purpose is but nice work Paco!
 
Galvanized framing for the fire?
 
The bars are to save the rockers when off-roading. A rock or high point will hit the bars before deforming your door jambs. And they look cool. :cool:

I guess? The photo was taken by our PIO. The second shot looks unfiltered. Either way, a spectacular fire with crazy radiant heat. Honestly, the folks fighting the fire don't have time to take photos on something this size. We had to evacuate residents from the apartment across the street as well as protect exposures and extinguish the blaze. We used city busses to evacuate residents, This blaze came in around 2 AM.
I don't have Facebook, but for those who do, TFD has a page with detailed photos of the fire and resulting damage.

Just saw your post Paco. Beautiful work. Must have been hard to buff out those welds on the ends of the bars. My welds need buffed out for astetic purposes, think Im a beter grinder than welder.
