And my expertise is fig melding. From the Newton to inside my tummy. There, go figger out that word play. And put down that stupid pipe. :tired:

Next you will claim the law of gravitation and the laws of motion.....

See who is scientifically literate.

Levitation of reaction and smurf compaction??! That would be complete satisfaction!  Or to quote Isaac, does a fig in motion cause tend to continue  in motion?  :lol:

Ahh,   the sleep of the deep night, hark!
 

Heart-hidden from the outer things I rose,
The spirit woke anew in nightly birth
Into the vastness where forever glows
The star-soul of the earth.

There all alone in primal ecstasy,
Within her depths where revels never tire,
The olden Beauty shines; each thought of me
Is veined through with its fire.

And all my thoughts are throngs of living souls;
They breath in me, heart unto heart allied
With joy undimmed, though when the morning tolls
The planets may divide.

 George William Russell

I always get those funny looks when I say "heli-arc" instead of TIG.  This is my 40th year as a welding inspector :cool:, so you could say I'm old school.   Fun Fact: Linde actually coined and trademarked the name 'heli-arc", because this process needs an inert gas... and they used helium.   Nowadays argon is more common, but the few times I got to weld with helium is was really nice.  I can't imagine the price of helium... I just paid $40 for an 80 cf bottle of argon!!

issue with welding with helium.............we had to polish the stainless for some reason that made it harder to grind that well smooth. helium was used for better penetration on thicker steel!

 

oh and its Michelob golden draft lite for me!!!!!!!:D

I could never master acetylene torch welding with the filler rods, etc.  Arc, Wirefeed and TIG came pretty easy - at least in a classroom environment

And I like IPAs and Busch Lite equally.  Along with pretty much any other beer, besides Saisons.  Those just taste like skunky beer to me.

 

How many other welding/beer combo posts can we get in this Canadian Bacon thread!?!?!?

At least ipa tastes like beer, rather than water.  Remember pfeiffer, the beer with the silent p?

oh yea I remember that. 3 cases for 9.99, returnable bottles. my uncle was a high school math teacher, worked at the Schmidt brewery a few summers. he said most the beer in the Pfeiffer bottles came out of the Schmidt vat anyway!!!!!!

 

thunder............have you considered using beer for a brine for CB>>>>>>> is that more on track!!!!!:D

Do folks still weld with a torch, with the modern availability of tig and mig and generators and stuff?

Well, let's try....:crazy:   I haven't welded in 45 years....and yes, Del, I remember Pfeiffer beer... as I recall, $4 a case. I drank that...and Western......only when I had to. Pure skunk squeezin's. We better get back to the CB thread, before we start discussing the welds and seals that Morton Thiokol fudged up on the space program....

Years ago I didn't care for Miller, their welding machines or their beer.  ;)  Now I have a blue box in my garage and drink mostly Lite, but do enjoy IPA's on occasion... flavor-wise and potency you get a lot of bang for your buck.

Just this morning I was reading this article about a Morton Thiokol engineer and his battle with guilt over the Challenger explosion.

    • Truly sorry to hear that duffman! I know that feeling.  Keep the good memories  
    • Chamois passed away this weekend a couple days short of her 13th bday. What a great dog to hang out with here at home and on distant adventures. Gonna miss ya big time my little big girl.
    • Sounds pretty sweet, alright. I will check them out, thanks.
    • If you really want to treat your wife (and yourself) with a remote operated trolling motor, the Minn Kota Ulterra is about easy as it gets.  Auto stow and deploy is pretty awesome.  You just have to turn the motor on when you go out and that the last time you have to touch it.   24V 80lb.  60 inch shaft is probably the right length for your boat.  They ain’t cheap - about $3k - but neither one of you would have to leave your seat to use it all day.
    • Wanderer, thanks for your reply. I do intend for it to be 24 volt, with a thrust of 70-80. Spot lock is a must (my wife is looking forward to not being the anchor person any more).  With my old boat we did quite a lot of pulling shad raps and hot n tots, using the trolling motor. Unlikely that we will fish in whitecaps, did plenty of that when I was younger. I also need a wireless remote, not going back to a foot pedal. We do a fair amount of bobber fishing. I don't think I will bother with a depth finder on the trolling motor. I am leaning toward moving my Garmin depth finder from my old boat to the new one, just because I am so used to it and it works well for me. I am 70 years old and kinda set in my ways...
    • Dang, new content and now answers.   First, congrats on the new boat!   My recommendation is to get the most thrust you can in 24V, assuming a boat that size isn’t running 36V.  80 might be tops?  I’m partial to MinnKota.     How do you plan to use the trolling motor is an important question too.     All weather or just nice weather?   Casting a lot or bait dragging?   Bobber or panfish fishing?   Spot lock?  Networked with depth finders?  What brand of depth finders?
    • We have bought a new boat, which we will be picking up this spring. It is an Alumacraft Competitor 165 sport with a 90 horse Yamaha motor. I will be buying and installing a trolling motor,  wondering if I can get some recommendations on what pound thrust I will want for this boat?  Also, I will be selling my old boat, is there a good way to determine the value on an older boat ( mid-80's with a 75 horse 2-stroke  Mariner motor)  I will appreciate any help with these questions.
