Re: Donz '65 SWB Stepper Budget Build...

Another episode in this saga known as "Air Compressor Hell!!!

Finally got time to work on the fender repair, set up to sand blast, went to adjust the regulator for the pressure to the blaster...
regulator decided, "Since the compressor had a vacation, I need a funeral!"
It died! (See Pic 1) had to take a trip into town, 30 minutes one way, to replace the dead regulator...

Clamped up the fender patch... (See Pic 2)

Started making sparks... (See Pic 3)

Made some progress, planning on finishing the welding tomorrow (Life got in the way temporarily) then on to grinding and seeing how I did on my first metal repair work, EVER!!!

Thanks Bomp for the encouragement...
Still not ready to tackle the mods you are churning out...

This is my reaction when I check out your build, every time!!!!

Thanks for looking Guyz!!!
