Cookie 125 Your welding is fine It may not be perfect to your eyes but many of those looking would know the difference It is for sure good enough to do the job it is intended to do Plus any Skill you learn to do take some time to get the hang it You most likely where not born knowing how to weld So keep working on it and it will
good luck

The Hammer's drivers are legit. He can vouch that I am a good person to torture test drivers, and his will last me quite some time before I bend them over. I've not met a driver that I can't mess up yet, it's just a matter of how long it will take, and his give me the most life


Gotta live up to the nickname...

Been two busy at work to do much of anything trapping related but I did figure out that the duke number three is a great base line trap to modify into pretty much anything. [Linked Image]

Base plated, full jaw lams, and converted to wire lever.

Thanks! Was way too busy at the shop this season to go up northern pa to trap with my buddies. In my area of pa I did well for only having a couple sets out here and there.

That’s some crazy skill Hammer!
I just about bought a new welder, then I thought……I don’t know how to weld! My daughters going through tech college to get here ticket. She recommended getting a mig with gas, dual flux core stuff…….then I knew it was way over my head. I’ll stick with my cheap 120 stick for now…..lol
