Ti Welding Exhaust

[Jaeger_S2k]

Not my own work but some Ti welding done on my exhaust for the car.

I've posted the pictures in an album if anyone is interested, the work is very precise and clean.

One day we'll all weld like that

It wasn't as bad as we all thought, I think they eventually made repairs to 6 of those exhausts and mine was the first. It was done on a time and materials basis.

Was that a Lorch TIG?

I don't know, on my first 'reckie' visit I was shown round the whole place, including the riffle trigger turner/miller. They had some contracts going through that had ZERO tolerance!
I'm just a sucker for all this mechanical and engineering. WOW!

The lad that did the welding was in his late 20's early 30's.

that tables great like the idea of using the clamps to stop it all moving. What car was that for?

It removes a drone that OEM exhausts are renowned for, usually around 3,500 rpm and the 'addition' of a de-cat pipe helps too.

Here she is .....
