You couldn't spot weld a nipple on Nova.
 
well that's very true.....his new girly bite his off the other night so we might have to find someone that can....:rofl:
 
Hey she isn't my "new girlie". We are just good friends that enjoy each others company. If you saw her you would probably beat the crap outta me muttering something like "jezuz christ wherdya find THAT!"

I will now refer to my "skills" in "that" department as "Nova Magic". Wait there it should be "pure magic" or "Mr Fantastico"... nahh im stickin with "nova magic".. :rofl:

@ Silver Surfer i used a flux core mig setup to weld those flaps on, even on the low setting it was at risk of burning holes through the metal/drum so i was forced to kinda spotweld it :lol:

Use a MIG with argon, turn it down and ditch the flux core for the thin stuff. ;)

From what I've seen you don't need a welder to construct a UDS, but it does require a little more than moving the drum. :P

I give Nova, why the door? You'll never need to add charcoal or wood to it. Most will burn 12 - 16 hours with just a little playing with the air valve. And it's not smoke leaking out that will be a problem, it's air leaking in. It makes it hard to regulate the temps.
 
He did it just to be different because everyone said it wasn't needed......He has since found that he is struggling to regulate a good temp in the UDS.......He made a very small basket for the coals and thought a door would be good so he could fill it up all the time!!!! :lol:
