Ok sir, it looks like an advanced type of the ones welders and automobile sprayers use.
I only deal in architectural paints sir.

I’m looking to purchase this, have you seen it in markets?

It’s called welding magnets or squares but might have another name in Nigeria.

Thanks.

I’ve designed a new painting scheme for the next batch.

Ultimately I need to get into powder coating.

Thanks for the compliment but I’m still learning with a long way to go grin

On another note, I finished my first box of electrodes. Hopefully I’ll have good looking welds by the 5th box cool

To hold stock in perfect angles.

It’s a must have in any shop. If in the USA I’ll have maybe 20 pieces and it has affected the quality of my stuff.

Late October / Early November. I weld almost daily much to the chagrin of my MaiGuard who sweeps after I’m done cheesy

Very impressive.

I have 3 heavy duty industrial welding machines. I hope to get into DIY welding soon.

Those welding magnets are relatively cheap in Harbor Freights. You can have someone send you some. Ryobi? Porter Cable? Dewalt? Someone was hanging out too much in Home Depot grin

One thing I enjoy with welding is that I can pursue my ideas without the locals telling me it’s impossible or we no dey do am like dis.

I’ve now shown my instructor that using Bondo/body filler is not necessary. He’ll still use it on his stuff I think but not me.

I love Home Depot, Lowe’s, Sears Tools, Harbor Freight grin

I can get them sent down but I’m trying to cut the cord. How does a typical Nigerian get stuff from the abroad so to speak.

I need to grind down the welds, weld some more, grind some more, consuming Trophy’s. Rinse and repeat grin

My welds are God awful but I’m seeing improvements. Despite best intent I keep getting holes in light materials.

We keep moving.

Keeping your mind and hands engaged creatively is the best thing to do after retirement. This is what you are doing. You are a great inspiration to many.

Your threads are always informative and educative too.

More power to your elbow.
