A month ago I took on this trailer , making some small odd repairs, including removing that battery, and relocate in side the newly mounted tool box. The real challenge was replacing the hydraulic pump , hose and fittings to match up with the original hydraulic ram. Then figuring out how to wire in the switch for a single action hydraulic line ( manufacturer had it set for dual action)
Finding the right fluid wasn’t to difficult, and with support of a local hydraulic parts supplier it only took a couple of trips. lol
Ill show the hydraulics in action on the next video.

Hi Jody , I started going my through my storage and found a ton of left over filler metel from old jobs that were completed, it's a lot of filler metal. It consists of stainless and carbon , e70, 308, 309, 316, and for some reason there alot is 1/16 . Is there any drills you may be recomend so I can get some good practice hood time. All I can think off is practice feeding rod , but I'd like to get the most out of it.

Thanks in advance

Thank you Jody. BTW I used plasma off a mobil rig ONCE, bought a reg, used it off a single tall bottle of nitrogen, it's sucks it up pretty fast. But gets the job done. Wanna make sure there no leak$ in the fittings. Like you say "quick and dirty" . Also it can be handy to have a bottle of nitrogen for blowing stuff out.

Mobil Fire extinguisher refill guys use nitrogen to recharge several extinguishers on site.

We're those oxy-acetylene settings said to be 7&7 or 7 & 70 ?

6010 is funny, tight arc for roots/ groove Welds and and a variable 1/8 arc gap for lap joints and such. That's my two cents, I'm no pro-instuctor but yeah flatter weld usually happen with a decent 6010 arc gap. Also look into 6010 5p (red) it's supposed to be good old rusty dirty steel.
