19richie66 17,508 #401 Posted June 5, 2018 @RandyLittrell Thats a nice machine. I have a hobart 175. One day before I am blind or dead I would like a tig welder. So many ideas but no way to make them. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am going to try and make a steering wheel center cap with the skittles logo on it. 😁 Edited June 5, 2018 by 19richie66 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

19richie66 17,508 #404 Posted June 6, 2018 Little more done today. Finished the seat adjuster bracket and bolted it down. Also made a plate for the front of my belt guard. Had to cut of the front nose of the mounting tab to clear the block. Plug welded the plate to the front of the guard and notched it to slide under the battery tray where it will be held down. Came out ok. 11 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
