Yeah my last welding thread was some ridiculous shit I found on Facebook and I was shit posting. However, this is a picture of a roll cage/full tube chassis he made and welded up. He's only 23.

That looks machine welded. If he did that by hand, your title is right. Very skilled.

I am a retired Senior Certified Welding Inspector ,welded for over 20 years myself . Those welds look good as to reinforcement ( filler metal) it would depend on alloy .

Nice Dimes! Reminds me of a dude around here that welded in a factory job. One day the corporate wheels showed up and wanted to see the machine that made a certain weld on a certain part. They took them out in the factory and pointed to the guy and said - "There's your machine."

That looks TOO perfect to NOT be machine welded. If you say he did that by hand I have to believe you and if so, he is one really talented motherfucker...

One of them owned a performance shop and was sending custom shit all over the world. He used to make a ton of stuff for mitsu evos. I hear he does a lot for GTRs and other cars of that caliber. Some people are insanely good at it. I can only do enough to make it work. Lol |

Half of the skill in that job is in the coping and fit up of the tubing. In a one-off job, that is tedious and time consuming, so is repositioning during the welding.

Yup common to see him in such a strange position that he's working the pedal with his elbow or side of his knee |
