Top job and looking forward to seeing this progress (unlike the cupola and the CNC refit but I won't mention those
).
What is the reason for welding the filler to the neck with dissimilar rods?
LOL thanks Mayhem ,,,,,,,,,,,,, I used dissimilar rods as the tank is carbon steel and the filler neck is stainless steel

Hi John ,, I like the look of your blasting gun , I am shure I could knock one of those up to morrow , I got a couple of sample 25kg bags of media today , may give the setup a try out tomorrow
Thanks Rob
