Ok second attempt, spot welds weren't strong enough, more weld

Turned heat up, wire speed down

I like the idea GMC had on the access holes, may cut 2 more, top and bottom, for my C clamps

Jim,

I like how you are keeping at it, It has been a long haul for you.

I'm excioted to see the end result.

Doug

**jaros44sr** · 10-02-2022, 09:51 AM

Thanks for the encouragement, I call it my therapy

Glad I bought my camaro back in 15, at least I have something fun to drive....

Doug, thanks for stopping by and posting up, sometimes I wonder if anyone really reads this stuff, glacially slow

Going on 7 weeks of lower back pain, twice to the hospital and once to doctors office, to no avail,just injections and pills, that's not the lifestyle I want

I think I may have found my welder problem someone switched to 035 welding wire, I'm used to 023

Apparently, lead work falls in the same category as welding, if you can’t lead good,lead alot

Start over

**jaros44sr** · 10-17-2022, 12:31 PM

Clean up on isle 3

Ledd zep gave me a smoking deal on a speed warning buzzer, last part of that system, now I have to wire and mount, any clues on mounting location welcomed

Identify the use of this tool, it was in my Dewalt drive set

Has a Phillips head but no threads, sleeve is magnetic

OEM prize available for correct answer

No internet search or calling Dewalt lol

litebulblsc · 10-17-2022, 06:29 PM

Is it one of those bit holders, where the bit slides in, and the sleeve contacts what you are screwing into.

Thus disengaging the screw to prevent overdriving it? Like for drywall?

badpeanut · 10-18-2022, 08:22 AM

It holds the screw for you so you don't drop it?

**jaros44sr** · 10-19-2022, 09:56 AM

Can't say that either of you are wrong, because I don't know what it is.?..

CG · 10-19-2022, 12:32 PM

Mine is a version of yours. Basically you can put one of your bits in there and I makes it magnetic. They are a bugger to get back out though. Kinda works like a socket locks onto a socket wrench. Here is a pic of mine with the diagram that is in the mini holder

Almost looks like yours has a screw stuck in it. Kinda hard to tell in the pic

**jaros44sr** · 10-20-2022, 06:28 AM

OK CG, tried it and it works, just really snug, didn't want to break it.

So it looks like we have a winner

I have a few of those sets so it’s kinda like I cheated =)

I picked them up when I worked at Lowes, the people that worked in tools always let me know when something went on clearance.

How about a w/s knob, do you need it, I think it's a 67 or 68

I put the set screw in it to check thread size..............?..

CG · 10-21-2022, 10:37 PM

No prize necessary, happy to have contributed =)

**jaros44sr** · 10-22-2022, 10:00 AM

BTW, thanks for the oil filter

Just wanted to make a fillet, for added strength and fill in my burn through

Need to practice welding, no burn through

Lead work sucked, dirty work area probably the cause

Need to move forward on this area, so this was the only solution so far

This stuff has been laying around for ever and still works

Looking like a B post to me, or at least 1/2 of a B post

low'n slow · 11-05-2022, 08:15 PM

Keep at it Jim.

Looking good.

Thanks bud, I think you may be one of the few people who actually follow this stuff, but now I have to figure out what the piece looks like that bolts to the area I'm working on.

I suppose it mounts to the torsion box, may have to buy one.....

I’m sure there’s a bunch of us that have been following along. I don’t usually comment but I do check every time you post an update.
