<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We repair Alloy wheels pretty much every day and have been repairing wheels for many years. The most common problems are cracks on the inside edge of the wheel.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We see wheel rims with this kind of damage all the time. You think you've picked up a puncture and your tyre constantly needs pumping up. So you go along to get the puncture fixed and find that this is the problem, no worries we fix them fast, same day if you get in early enough, even if it's later in the day we'll do our best to get you back on the road.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><u>How to identify TIG rods.</u></span></h2>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I thought i'd do some short videos to show a few little tricks which help you get along as a welder, some of you may already know what I am telling you in the video but hopefully I can help someone with my information here.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The first video shows you a method which I use to identify which of the most common two Tig filler rods is which, most filler rods are identified with a four digit code but some are not, and anyhow if you happen to burn off the bit with the identification on, you would be left guessing what you have in your hand, if you are anything like me, in a busy welding workshop environment and you have lots of partly used rods on your welding table and you just want to get that job finished and don't want to get a new rod from the tube, here's what to do. The most common Tig filler rod for Aluminium is 4043 the next most common is 5356.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dwHsVboGdyTA3n6wdQpciWyML7b9V58vTuqmms1WxCTnUHhYQdHNdM54fuwS8LxVdpWJAoY6LCH1Dduu0_jkQ' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">A word of apology though, I have just watched the video through again and realised that I have shown you the wrong side of the identification on the 5356 rod so it does not say 5356 on the side you see, it did on the other side,sorry, I am a better welder than I am video maker!</span></div>

On MTB's it tends to be cracks which have appeared over time or maybe since a big collision. On a Road bike frame it's mainly damage to the rear drop-out and derailleur hanger. Todays job was on a Commencal hardtail Mtb frame where the top of the seat tube had broken off completely just above the original weld.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The paint had to be removed from the frame near to where I was going to be welding.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The broken top of the tube was re-attached using ACDC Tig at around 65amps with a 1.6mm 4043 filler rod, the frame material is 6061. I also added a small gusset to the front of the break and extended it along the top tube, hopefully this will help spread the load and prevent any further failures.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Job done and customer happy, he's back on the road or maybe trail.</span></div>

<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Some of the people who have bought the Jasic JA 140 have said its a great machine, small lightweight and easy to use, not to mention cheap too. </span></div>

<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">But wouldn't it be great if it could do Aluminium as well, my answer is "it can". This little welder does have its limitations, of course it does. But if you only want to weld thin Aluminium just now and then, this machine will do it, watch the video to see the Jasic JA 140 Pro, welding Aluminium on the cheap!</span></div>

<u>Preston Welding Supplies is now part of DBT Engineering.</u></h2>
<div>
Frank retired back in October and so I took on the business from him. Frank was keen to know that all his customers would still be able to get all their requirements locally, and I thought that the welding supplies business would compliment my Engineering and Welding work quite well and give customers somewhere not only get everything needed for welding but also somewhere where they can get a bit of advice on which gas or how many amps or whatever.<br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This is a job that I do on a regular basis for a local engine tuner.

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The piece was welded to the end of the original strip but only in the middle, this was to ensure that no distorion was introduced into the finished panel, which would be more difficult to planish out now that the strip was in place.
