Soooo first project using the new tig welder. I am not a pro be any means but i am learning. So i decided to build a coolant tank to match the rest of the stuff under the hood.

The business end of it. The steam vents will use the -6. The radiator will use the -8 and the water pump will use the -12.

Anyways it is kinda taking shape.

The business end

Hey! You started the thread with "retard"...... not me. Just want to make sure you don't forget again. Its been alot longer than I can remember, so you're probably right about the 10yrs. Super jealous of the TIG! What machine? My only aluminum welding capability is through my MIG with a spool gun and if I made a thread about it, it would start with "retard" too.
