another welding question

Why couldn't ya drill a few holes, and weld it, then bolt a plate cutout the same shape ??? That will definitely take the strain off the weld ???

Well, the blade shaft gave me problems. The bearing would not budge. I had to cut out one bearing, now I have the shaft off and the blades removed. Hope I can find a new bearing, it's a rex 2200. I welded the leg and leg brace using the instructions on this thread, worked great. Tommorrow I am going to start blasting and painting.

Quote from: woody1 on April 03, 2007, 06:47:00 PMOne more question... The batter gets a hit to short left field, the runner from first slides past second base, missing the base. The shortstop catches the throw from the left fielder while standing on second base, before the runner gets back to second. then the runner gets back to second, no tag. Is he out ? ??? ???

Yes, since the guy from first base is forced to second in this scenario he must touch second base before he is considered safely there and tagging the base is as good as tagging the runner. You cannot overrun(or slide) second or third base the way that you can "run through" the first baseman. What is your opinion on this?

good answer joker.
The edger is finished. I put everything together today and painted it. The only money I had in it was the $140.00 for the bearing, a little bit of paint, pb blaster and some rods. Thanks alot for all the help, the welding came out good, but I wouldn't want to do alot of cast iron. I uncovered my mill today and hope to have it running by the end of the month. My best friend has already picked out the white pine off MY property to cut on MY mill to take to HIS addition..go figure. Just kidding, he could have anything I own. Thanks again !!!!
