Todays progress!! made a header tank
Spent all afternoon and most of the evening making my second header tank
The first one turned into a bit of a disaster when It came to welding it, good practice for the second one though, I'm finally starting to get
the hang of tig welding alloy
You can probably guess I'm well pleased with the results!
Thought I would post a picture on here seen as I'm not getting the reaction I would of liked from the wife and kids they don't seem to share
my enthusiasm for a shiny peace of metal
