As I said I bought garage last year, but forgot to show you reconstruction process.
How it looks at first. (IMG:http://i1172.photobucket.com/albums/r573/MycaSG/Garage/P1140841_zpsheyw6zob.jpg) (IMG:http://i1172.photobucket.com/albums/r573/MycaSG/Garage/P1140842_zpspvp2ltec.jpg) (IMG:http://i1172.photobucket.com/albums/r573/MycaSG/Garage/P1140843_zpsv5d97xyv.jpg) (IMG:http://i1172.photobucket.com/albums/r573/MycaSG/Garage/P1140844_zps6ubu7apt.jpg) Tons of garbage and useless stuff, damaged roof. Wooden floor which provides high humidity in garage. We decided to make new roof and concrete floor. First step - garage cleaning. (IMG:http://i1172.photobucket.com/albums/r573/MycaSG/Garage/P1140854_zpsg27gm7ut.jpg) (IMG:http://i1172.photobucket.com/albums/r573/MycaSG/Garage/P1140855_zpsudqkpxrf.jpg) (IMG:http://i1172.photobucket.com/albums/r573/MycaSG/Garage/P1140858_zpsdf2udkcn.jpg) Now we have space to store at least tools and materials. End of part 1 (of 3) |

Next work was made last year.
This is bottom edge of the left fender (IMG:https://e-a.d-cd.net/7d502c2s-960.jpg) (IMG:https://f-a.d-cd.net/e3502c2s-960.jpg) As you can see it's rusted a liitle bit. Cleaned up with grinder: (IMG:https://g-a.d-cd.net/cb502c2s-960.jpg) (IMG:https://e-a.d-cd.net/5b502c2s-960.jpg) Cutt off (IMG:https://f-a.d-cd.net/97502c2s-960.jpg) Replacement part (IMG:https://b-a.d-cd.net/68f02c2s-480.jpg) (IMG:https://h-a.d-cd.net/c0d02c2s-960.jpg) (IMG:https://a-a.d-cd.net/8cf02c2s-480.jpg) (IMG:https://e-a.d-cd.net/91082c2s-960.jpg) Aaaaaaaaand it's done! (IMG:https://d-a.d-cd.net/34d02c2s-960.jpg) (IMG:https://d-a.d-cd.net/6cd02c2s-960.jpg) At first i thought it's impossible to repair this fender. That was my first welding and fabrication experience. Conclusions: 1. Next time use 1.00 mm sheet metal or less (I had only 1.2 mm) 2. Never make direct impacts, put some absorbing material (like wood or rubber) between tool and metal. 3. Too poor to afford english wheel. Total: Work - zero credits = 0 usd. And sorry for garbage on the background - thats not my yard. Pics was filmed by welding machine. |

the amount of rust on this car you've fixed makes the rust on my car look like a joke (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif)

looks pretty good for a first try, dont worry if you dont see your welding improve, it takes some time. (for me it does atleast lol)
