This welding rod fits into an electrode holder which is insulated and allows the operator to safely hold the electrode without danger of receiving an electric shock. The rod can be positioned in the holder in a number of different ways depending on operator preference or the position of the work being welded.

When the welding machine is on and the ground clip is connected to the steel table or to the work itself anything metal on this table is now charged. When the electrode makes contact with the work it completes a circuit with the electricity flowing through the electrode holder, down through the work, and back out to the ground clamp back to the welder.

When an arc is struck a common pool of molten metal is created between the two pieces that are being joined. Into this the melting alloy center of the welding rod is deposited completing the weld. One thing to be careful of as you’re welding this rod is being consumed. That is, it’s growing shorter. So, the operator has to constantly be aware of both moving the rod laterally but also pushing the rod into the seam being welded.

The first step in learning how to arc weld is learning how to strike the arc. Striking the arc can sometimes be very difficult at first. It’s a delicate flicking motion. It’s not a stabbing or a quick drag, but as if you’re striking a match gently. Once the arc has started the trick is to maintain a nice, smooth molten puddle of metal with a consistent distance between the tip of the welding rod and the surface of the work.

Alright. Let’s give it a try. Welding hoods down. Remember, never look at an arc with the naked eye.

Now that you’ve mastered striking the arc, and it may have taken you several tries don’t be discouraged, let’s join some metal together. OK, hoods down. After striking the arc I create a nice, even pool of molten metal. You’ll notice that the tip of the welding rod stays very near to the arc puddle and that I’m also slightly wavering the tip of the electrode back and forth. The idea is to heat both pieces of metal evenly as the filler rod is being deposited.

Once you’ve completed your arc welded seam you’ll notice that there’s a blue-black residue on top of the weld. This residue is a byproduct of the burning flux. It needs to be cleaned away from the weld. You can do this with a chipping hammer and wire brush.

Australia – Culture in the Colonies

March 24, 2016 By Editor


Description given on Youtube:
Australia is a country of paradoxes a young, by world standards western democracy, colonized by the English at the edge of Asia. For better or worse it inherited the imposition of European cultures on a land of great, and often violent contrast. During the time of its English Governor, Lachlan Macquarie and his wife Elizabeth, culture in the colonies became a reality. Find out more www.thecultureconcept.com/circle

Dad and Dave Radio show

March 23, 2016 By Editor


Description given on Youtube:
A short excerpt of the old time radio show ,Dad and Dave.
“Dad and Dave first went to air in 1937 and ran for an amazing 16 years. It was created by George Edwards, a radio actor and producer famous for being able to play numerous characters. He was popularly known as The Man with a Thousand Voices. He played Dad until he died in 1953.

The serial was based on Steele Rudd’s book On Our Selection, first published in 1899. The dramatic rights were purchased in 1912 by actor and enterpreneur Bert Bailey who played Dad on stage for almost 20 years, as well as in four films directed by Ken G. Hall in the 1930s.

Australian radio audiences took to the serial with enthusiasm. It achieved extremely high audience ratings, made the mythical Snake Gully a much-discussed place, and had Australians of all ages whistling its theme song, ‘On the Road to Gundagai’.”

WOW Ted Cruz CONVERTS Iowa farmer ANGRY about ethanol subsidies to his side!!!

March 23, 2016 By Editor


Description given on Youtube:
In this really remarkable video, Ted Cruz is accosted by an angry farmer about his plan to phase out subsidies, and Cruz gives him as much time as it takes to get him to say, “well I hope the farmers vote for you” by the end of the exchange.

UPDATE:

Some are saying in the comments they can’t get the video to work because of some Jade Helm Mossad-planned conspiracy.

You can sense how angry the farmer is, but Cruz employs his impressively deep knowledge of the subject to explain calmly why his policies will HELP farmers, even though he’ll phase out the government subsidy. Maybe the farmer was just being nice at the end, but he went from total anger to a pretty calm and accepting position, all due to Cruz’s engaging arguments.

Now ask yourself – do you think you’d get that kind of understanding out of Trump?

And wouldn’t you LOVE to see Hillary try to debate with Cruz?

It’s only going to happen if Iowans reject the lies being told about his ethanol position, and listen to the real Tednado.
