Simple DIY toe jack plan?
PekkaNF:
Pickeled hot rolled parts in vinegar overnight...better, but still some slag left. Looks like in the summer overnight is enough.
Took a picture and then sprayed them with steam washer, almost all came out, but dunk them overnight.

First jack has been waiting welding - my brother normally welds stuff for me. He has better welding machines and training. I have only 160A inverter, 3,25mm sticks are max.

Should work good.
PekkaNF:
Yep, but nicer on a big MIG and he was a certified high pressure tube/vessel welder a little while. My welding is not that great and this is a lifting contraption and used very close to expensive machinery and my life and limb.
I rather have somebody who actually can weld to weld it, even if he must use my welder.

I feel the same there has to be a comfort zone. I'm starting out welding as part of this hobbyitis thing One day I'll try cutting and etching to see just what kind of penetration I'm getting. Welding is about the last thing I need to do almost anything its a strange feeling to walk through a store or pawnshop not seeing anything to buy!
