I've used the low temp welding wire to fill up to a quarter sized hole, but it's hard after a nickel size to fill in right. I had to let it cool a couple time and go back and readd wire. It worked great, Harbor Frt sells it too.

 

Been trying to get ahold of my friend to see if we're still going to the Labor Day car show... I kinda don't want to, but already told him I'd go with him. I want to continue my bodywork project.

 

What in the world could that be Ak, brass rod maybe ?

Low temp welding wire...drawing a blank. Curious.....googling...... , -

Well I'll be - https://www.harborfreight.com/8-piec...ods-44810.html

They say you can use the stuff with a propane torch.

Did it hold ?

 

It sure does. Did a couple of radiators with that stuff to put back on the side brackets. Holds great. Filled a couple of roof holes where the antennas were and you can't tell there was holes before.

 

Good to know! Yea, I've had a few coat fires attempting to come up with something like that when I was kid....what a little I knew lol.

 

I wound up going to the show... ran in to a guy that used to work for me years ago. Only stayed about two hours though. Had to come home and figure out why my battery died on The Eight Nine. Did the old parasitic draw test on her. Got it figured out though.

 

You got to do a car show today! Stuck home helping the wife with her to-do's, having some fun tho. The highlight thus far was caulking the bird feeder. All I had laying aroud was monster size tube of construction adhesive....try smoothing that out with your finger lol. Got to use the big caulk gun though.

 

Parasitic draw test, and you got it already ? It must of been apparent then or you had some idea, maybe you got lucky. Does you car have a sleep timer like the gen 10's do?

 

No timer, so you can hop right in. It wasn't what I thought it was. I thought for sure it was the alarm. It was the Radio/Clock, Fuel Door, Courtesy Lamp, and Power Mirror fuse. My head immediately said Radio/Clock. I pulled the stereo, and no change. Then I pulled the alarm out (not knowing where the alarm was getting power) and no change. Then I bumped the passenger side visor, and caught the meter changing in the corner of my eye. Friggin' "makeup light" was on. Apparently that is also a courtesy light? LOL

I got a kick out of this trailer... the show wound up being HUGE. This was down the street in my dentist's parking lot.

 

Good morning thinkers!- hope you all had a good weekend!- Nice little car show, White!- we took a run over to the f-i-l’s- took the Mrs. little Kia- had good driving weather, both ways!
Back at the salt mine- all is fairly quiet right now, getting ready for our annual maintenance shutdown in the next couple of weeks.
Be safe! Ill catch up later!!
