Welds: The Good, The Bad, The Ugly, Or The Beautiful

Can’t find any just weld threads. If there is one, please merge this...

Any welders out there? Got a great weld to show off? Or a not so great one too! All welds welcome...

I’m in steel construction, and I like lookin at welds...

And for the opposite end of the spectrum, here’s a real winner that I found on my Jeep straight from the factory! WoooIMG_0133.jpg

Mel's crew (i believe) was laying down some really good welds on Eddie and Cindy's gladiator axles. Not sure what build video that was in. I'm not a good welder, my younger brother is a pipe welder. Love watching him redo my shit!

A 1/4” s.s. Line I had to weld up! Not bad! That’s my finger next to it for size comparison.

That’s incredible. Did you use a rotator? It’s hard to get a weld so flush. Beautiful.

I was going for like 1/16 face reinforcement of these vacuum chamber flanges...it’s tough to be perfectly consistent. I used a rotator here:
