Making stainless steel pretty

[thinfourth]

I've got the TIG welder

I've got some stainless

I'm not completely useless in a workshop


But the question is how do i get that nice brush look with the welds so you can't see the welds

If that makes sense

 

[BrokenBiker]

either with a flap disc of one of those wheels that sits in a drill, made from sand paper.

once you have done the welds, take them flush with the flap disc then travel in one direction, with the grain of the metal until desired effect is done

will probably take a bit of practice and on different joints it is a bit harder

butt welds are fairly easy but corners are a bit harder, or I think so anyway

Various methods depending on what you are trying to achieve, for mitred joints I did a little how to, here
