I also to the k.frame to a place near me were they are welding stuctural beems for the mine workers and they even sed the welds are solid. not pritty welds but he sed they will be ok, so what ever man.

I love how people can throw out negative comments like dont do it, or thats bad, and has nothing else to back them selfs up with. I got 2different people that weld for a living 1of them dose sheet metals and the other structual beems to look at my job and they both say its ok, This swc guys seez 1picture, and sez its bad and thats all nothing about what he thinks makes it bad, just its bad. How long did you say you been welding for man? the weld dose not need to look like a stack of dimes to be a good weld, all you need is good penitration on both sides and enough weld over the joints. I got good penitration and plenty of weld over the joints :D and no 4years of being tought how to do it :D

You don't think I know what I am on about........... I am a fully qualified tradesman with 40 years experience and you the U tube Expert tell me that I don't know what I am on about. If any first year apprentice submitted those welds for marking in TAFE, he or she would have failed.

Taking it a place that does mine work and they tell you that they are OK.... s**t, they woud have laughed you out of the place.

Have tried to be helpful to you but you just don't want to listen. Go for your life.

mate your not trying to be helpfull, just negative. and yes when it come to sum1 on a internet forum saying my weld is bad and thats it, nothing about why you think its bad, compaired to 2people that looked at my weld in real life that know about welding aswell, who would you listen to.. and as i sed befor these guys in the building next door to the wreckers i go2 say its fine then its good for me. haha and to get into the nitty gritty of my visit yes he did laugh at how the weld look were i went off the line abit and told me it is not a neat weld but its a solid weld and the other welds he told me they are not to bad. I told him im not looking for a neat weld award just need to know if they are solid welds he sed they are. What can i say mate they are welds that will hold and thats all i need.. I would bet a million dollars that the k.frame you did and mine, what ever pressure it would takes to brake your weld mine will be the same. the only real difference is your welds look realy nice aswell as strong, mine are just strong.
