The Chopper Compendium

I subscribe to an online edition of Welding Design and Fabrication.
The recent issue has an article about avoiding distortion when welding thin sheet metal.

i don't want to post the article here, so I've put the link below for any interested.

The sub is free BTW.

Thanks Bob, this type of info is great for newbs like me, trying to learn from scratch.

Good start on a great topic. I read all I can on the subject . Jalopy Jornal is on of my regular stops. A lot of the techniques are useful in bikebuildng.
