Tworley build

Does that mean you aren't coming over here anymore?
Oh I'll still come over, I'll be teaching you all how to weld now
Welder and angle grinder may be the best money I have ever spent. Congratulations dude!
OP
Thanks! It's probably way more welder than I need, but the Lincoln 3200hd I have is limited in what it can do.
Every man should have a welder for a few projects here and there
Ive got a miller 211 and I think that class of welder is perfect for what we do. Enjoy!

Posted this in the welding thread, but thought I'd share here too. In preparation of the new welder I wired in a 240 outlet in the garage tonight.

Can I call my truck a tow pig like everyone else? I don't have a trailer, but it does a little bit work!
I bedlined my rocker panels this weekend in an attempt to fight a small rust spot above the rear wheel well arch. I am confident the rust is not forming in between the body panels, but from old exterior chips and existing peeling paint. Everything I researched and I kept coming back to Monstaliner. 5 year updates with photos and it still looked great, so I bit the bullet and bought their 1 gal kit as well as a gallon of their universal primer.
I sanded the rockers for 4 hours on Saturday. I got rid of all the clear coat, and running a towel over these areas produced a fine white dust after I was done.

Taped everything off early Sunday morning and cleaned it really well with MEK. Then went to town with their Universal 1k High Solids Primer and the liner. I am pretty happy with the results, it should be dry enough for "light duty" use this afternoon and fully cured after a week.
