Loved using the MIG on Aluminium welding, made it so much easier than stick or gas. The colours were VERY pretty, the fumes not so!
Quality Control in car parts factory. Spend most of my days having rows with customers over 1 tenth of a millimetre. "Its about half of a hair thickness to big blah blah blah"
I know how you feel xsilver. We throw away a lot of tempered auto glass for having defects about a half a millimeter? Those same defects,if you can even see them in a car lot,will be there after your first car washing!
@ saugmon.......... does your job also do windsheilds and back glass? i need a hook up !!! @ xsilver....... auto parts huh? cool, seems like here in aD, i can get great connections......
I am currently a T/L on a dbo line: Deep Bend Operation. For backlites and highly curved side lites like in the back of the Honda Element sport utility.The other side of our plant does the wind shields. Right now,the part we are on is for BMW.The whole roof of the car is glass and a little steel,but not much steel! A very sweet vehicle! A half millimeter defect is no good! As for hookups? We do some aftermarket glass once in a while.We ship all our parts out to have the molding/hard ware,and other stuff put on them at other factories. Flat glass to final bend is it.
dammit........... i need a back glass for my stang. studid guy who re-did my window tint totally screwed my defrost. not that i really need it this far south in texas, but there are sometimes when it does drop in the 30's here. good thing i keep her in the garage.
I don't care for that film tint. If you have some breaks in those defogger lines,radio shack has a silver ink pen that may repair them.
where i live, tint is a necessity........ 100 + degrees in the spring, summer and fall........ only 1.5 months of actual cold here.
That's probably with 0% humidity? That still is too hot for me regardless of humidity or no humidity! I'd rather live up north close ddp with the cold!
neph's right....... we are almost neighboring states, except he lives in the desert, 125 degrees in the shade. good thing i got limo tint, illegal here, but everyone has it, even the police cars. @saugmon...... is that glass for the BMW thicker then normal (due to structural limitations)? whats the weight of it, do you know? how shatter resistant is it (anything like windsheilds) i can imagine a roll-over in that..... not a pretty site, i am sure.
saugmon, try with the humidity like we had this past july as it would have been in the high 30's into the low 40's c.
our humidity levels gets pretty bad here in australia and we get temperatures in the high 30s-low 40sC.pollen count is terrible.my hayfevers been playing up for weeks.i live out in the country so we are drier than in the city areas.
Lol catfreak. Today in Phoenix the high will be 87º and the low tonight will be 57º. We'll be expecting you soon
