Friends, all welcome. We continue the useful tips and recommendations on the topic of self-development of welding, and this vast and interesting topic consists of many small, simple and very important tips, one of which will be described hereinafter.
All of us who are permanently or occasionally uses a welding course has grinders (of course it is called LBM, but it used to be called 99 percent of people, including myself), some alone, others some. Cutting disc grinds the work, and reaches this size, when they are no longer otrezhesh nothing. But do not rush to throw it out, they do not need to throw away, as it has come in handy.
Do not throw out disks have ground off from the Bulgarian, they still come in handy in the welding
But here, the disc became small and ceases to cut, that's when it's time to use it for another purpose. Just take it and break it up into several parts. Now you have set for the perfect billing gap in welded parts. After all, we know the thickness of the disc, so you want us to play is easy to pick up, using one or overlaying debris disks.
This method I use for a long time. And for a good example of a specific welding job I will show you a few pictures, where this method was used.
It was mounted on tack boards and racks on the trailer, and for issuing a uniform gap ground off pieces of sets of disks have been used between the bar and the board.
So here is a simple and quite useful way to apply can be found already on the ground off disk grinder.
So never throw out, and let it be in your garage that's a naborchik for accurate billing gaps. Oh, I almost forgot, many will say that the gap can be put anything where known thickness of the electrode-stubs or trim pieces of sheet metal, but when after a few tacks metal pulls, then remove metal objects from the gap is much harder than the disk pieces from Bulgarians.
