Hey all, Just giving a very late update in case anybody else reads and is interested.
I did try a few of the different methods mentioned here (purchased a hand surform and tested that out, Made a jig for the pneumatic grinder with the blade that Henry suggested to take the tops off first), But...
Just an update Eddie to let you know that your plan worked and to thank you again :clapping: I have only just got back into using the machine again recently and started having a lot of issues with it straight away! I did as you said and I set it running whilst I poked and prodded with a timber...
Thank you very much Eddie that's a lot more info than I was expecting so I appreciate it!
I did give it a pretty decent clean out when I first got it to blast the dust out of there but I never got a brush or anything onto it so I might try that first and see how it's looking. My brother just...
G'day everyone, I bought a second hand mig welder about a year ago which has turned out to be quite a nice machine overall but it has this one issue where it just all of a sudden starts feeding the wire out as fast as it possible can? It's usually a pretty rare occurrence so I haven't been able...
Haha sorry bob I wasn’t aware of that rule!
It’s a 48’ mumby catamaran (or will be once I’m finished) have been working on it over the weekend for about 5 months now and have just cut all of those tacks out ready for the welder to come back in next week hopefully to finish off the outside, Will...

I have got one of those deadly looking blades on my pneumatic grinder atm thank you Henry so I might give that a go in the meantime to see if I can do...
Hello everyone,
I am currently building an aluminium catamaran out of 5083 and 6060, 6082. I tacked one of the hulls together and paid somebody to come in and do the majority of welding for me (so it doesn’t fall apart on its maiden voyage) and now I have to begin the arduous task of taking all...
Thank you all for your replies
It is a 4 roller feed but only a 2 roller drive on it and I have emailed a few people about converting it to drive with 4 but nobody seems to want to get back to me! I seem to often get bird nests with 1.2 mm wire so I don’t think the feed is the issue anyway...
Hey everybody,
I purchased a second hand 400SP cigweld with a wire feeder and I was just wondering about hooking a push pull gun up to it? Not really interested in a spool gun though. I’m building a 48’ catamaran out of aluminium so there’s just a lot of places that are hard to get to with a 3M...
