Those members who do there own welding have you learned to weld by taking a specific welding course or have you learned the art of welding by reading manuals and by practice?
Both, but I forgot a lot too.

Have to replace an older welder. Or maybe I just think I have to.
No, you have to…
I finally replaced my Lincoln vertical “Bullet” even though it still works fineTinbender wrote:
Looks like it was DWW– Dirty When Welded.I'd say it was just tacked – not completed. The QA guy probably took that day off.

Larry,
I think you should reincarnate your idea. If you do it before I get a round tuit, I'll be your first customer.

If you can add a section to the Backhoe control valve to work the thumb, why use Power Beyond capability?
The valve stack would be too wide to fit the backhoe console for one thing, and having the power beyond allows mounting a remote valve almost anywhere and using either a lever or electric push button operator (and it's much cheaper). Sweet!

Forgot to mention that my creedo is the same as your wife's, only I'm called a pack-rat.

No doubt she figured out that the slots were all on the inside so no way it could be a sprinkler, but she just didn't feel like arguing.
Did you make the horse? Nice! Daughter is a cutie! Account deleted.
As you are sitting in the seat, the block on the extreme right has a plug which is removed, the cartridge is screwed in, the plug is reinstalled, and the plug directly below that one becomes the power beyond port. I have a diagram of the whole valve stack, unfortunately not with me. I will scan and post it as soon as I can, which will be some time on Wednesday.

Phil,
Yes, Nimco is the valve stack you can get the power-beyond cartridge for. Dang it, I forgot to bring the part number back with me.
Here is their contact info: NIMCO

Ha ha… I was bored one night so I decided to post it since the forum was blank.
Actually, in the summertime it holds bottled water.

Like David, I use the manual slider to help set the sensitivity and test the trailer brakes. I haul three different trailers, with the dump trailer being the heaviest, so the sensitivity is different for all the trailers. I remember the old controllers tapped into the towing vehicles hydraulic brake systems, the new ones have an inertia sensor.

I wonder whatever became of Diamondpilot? I know he had a boat business on the side and towed a lot of heavy loads.
I think the three of them (Greg, Chris, Mike) were joined at the hip.
Miss them.

Does anyone use just the manual lever to slow down with rather than the foot brake all the time?
Nope, not a good idea. The trailer brakes are rated for the capacity of the axles, not the trailer, and especially don't include the towing vehicle or the trailers load. That's why the sensitivity adjustment is so important – you want the trailer brakes to start applying just slightly early, that keeps everything in a straight line. Plus, you will be going through a lot of trailer brakes.
