Project "Blue Angel/F#!K Cancer"- GX390 Powered MiniBike
got my tig cooler finished up.. bout ready to get this bike done now... and back to a routine... added a high flowing fan and moved it and radiator to the top panel away from the heat and exhaust of the motor... and used the original fan i bought, as an exhaust... cooler is running excellent! no leaks and coolant is super cool

had to switch gears again, for a sec and work on some other things (still mini bike related though)... but did add to this also, while at it... will be back on this soon... was making some custom mini bike gas tanks, to keep up with continuing my efforts to become a badass tig welder...
but anyway... here is some "small" progress"... started on wheelie bars too...

Gerald, awesome work. I am really digging your tig work on the tanks as well as everything else. Curious on the Tig welding, as I can Mig weld now. How easy is it to control the heat with your foot, your gun, and your filler rod at the same time? I have had it described to me as being able to write with your right/left hand at the same time.
thank you...
I think it is much easier than being able to write withyour left and right hand at both times.. more like being able to draw a line with your left and right hand... or circle etc.. but easier than say writing letters with both hands at same time.. if that makes sense...
i can hold the torch in either hand and feed with either hand... and picked it up pretty quick... the more you weld, the easier it seems to get, as with most things... i honestly seem to get better every single sit down... and i can tell as im welding... though at times the end result looks the same, or is similar... still have a much easier time getting to the result or better, after each welding session...
