Robots are going to take our jobs 😂 The table is more useful than the robot. Older employees said the robot was a piece of junk. It's just collecting dust in the shop. An expensive paper weight.

Visited a mining school where they had a display of different I-beam connections used in buildings. Are all of these under D1.1 code?

Update did a spark test with grinder. No sparks, material removed easily. Not aluminum because it's too heavy. JD Brewer

Is it possible to use dual shield flux core for an open root pass? on a 3G open root 1” plate test with a 60-degree “v” groove. Using 1/16” flux core welding wire
I am taking a structural weld test for a company and this is what they told me before the test. I have not taken the test yet. I have done open root with MIG but not dual shield.

I recently got a piece of pipe. I believe it is copper nickel alloy. I am going to do a spark test to confirm material. Does copper nickel alloy pipe give off sparks and what color? What other test can I do to determine if it is copper nickel alloy?

Using Miller Pipe Worx 400 to practice for a weld test. This is the most expensive machine I have used. 3/8 inch plate with 37.5 angle bevel, 1/8 root opening, 1/16 landing. Mig root downhill. Dual shield flux core up hill. If click the trigger on any of the two guns the machine will automatically switch over with the saved settings. Crazy expensive

Has anyone used a brand of Dual Shield (FCAW) Electrode call "Diamond Spark" I heard a sales man came to the shop and had an employee test it. Salesman said that you did not have to chip off the slag because it would rise to the top after each pass over. No slag inclusion. It was cheaper than the Lincoln electrode and rated for structural AWS D 1.8   I did research and it is a German company.

Team finished the 50 foot bridge section at my job. Very cool seeing how they moved it. My first time being a part of a project this big. Can't wait to see what kind of truck that will move it.
