Oil to water heat exchanger.
Got a chance to weld on these 3/4 s.s tube ends to this carbon head plate. It was so dirty oil keep coming out, after stoping oil and Welding I found every time I would weld on a thin spot the weld would pop,
Pretty frustrating, I used the CK machine with a pluse tig feature it helped a lot but, in the end it was the tube expander that did the trick.

Really big plasma table can cut 1 inch thick plates. At my job.

I like beads like I like my women Hot 🔥 and heavy 😂💪 Stitch welding Dual shield flux core .045 I think I was running 24 volts 250 material thickness of out side plate 1/4" and 5/16" my welds were attaching the outside plate to the support frame. They had me weld it with all the supports in the way. Weird positions in the inside. Really difficult. I don't have thatuch experience with dual shield. More experience with hard wire. Some said my bead size was too big only supposed to be a 1/4. But better more than less. Not allowed to do multiple passes

Just finished the plate rack I was asked to build.
The steel came from left over drops I saved and, an old hammock stand I built a long time ago but never really used.
2x2x 1/8 tube 15' approximately
2" boiler tube .
12 x12 x 1x8 plate
2 hrs a day round up to 8 hrs
Used the CK to pluse tig weld the ends on the boiler tube (mainly to get familiar with the machine and its settings)
The square tubes were welded with a suit case powered by gas driven welder. (GMAW) Dailing in the wfs can be tricky but I got it.
22v 300 wfs/ volts were higher than the recommended 18 to 19 but, I set higher to make up for the voltage drop.
This was a gift but it's always good to know what I could or should charge.
Any feed back or constructive criticism accepted er I 🤔

Binge watching JD & Matt Hayden dual shield flux core videos pays off $$$. Thanks welding a bridge that goes over a tank for a mine. Probably copper mine. Dual shield flux core
