well i was making a piece last night, and decided to bridge the can to stem weld. did that, was pretty cool i guess, then i heard a tink thought it was a bridge end, then when i went to remove it a different weld came apart, and i had it all hanging there. so i went and rejoined the weld, and then rebridged to work it well, and it was great. the bridge really helped :)
with a more critical eye, i see what you mean on some joins being mediocre looking. thanks.
Yay! :)
glad u gave it a try and it worked for you! thats how shit gets done!! :)
Right on man....the thing i didnt add to most yesturday, is how much ore relaxeing it is on your body as well.....once its bridged you gab just groove with it....i like to get dancing when im into a weld......weld the rightside....let it stiffen a bit...then left side...let stiffen slimghtly, botto, then top....so the dance goes liek this ...left,left ,left ..stiffen!!!!....righ,right,mright...stiffen...etc .....get into the grooove mang!....have fun.
Loving the progress, keep on raging Kut.
raging, yeah thats the ticket.

Gog seal looks perfect on that rig Kut! I dig the super small body and mouthpiece shaping.
Nice Kut. Glad you gave it a try. That seal looks perfect.
Im sorry Kato, that was done before i started trying the bridge, and actually, is the one i noticed was not a smooth weld i posted about earlier. must look ok in pics.
Well it looks good to me man. Bridged or not. Keep it up your progression is great.
yea but those are experienced artists. bridging will make the walls even and the peice overall more solid so not bridging and having lumpy welds will add to stress in the piece. you should at least try it before you knock it. seems to me you are quick to bang on somthing that you havnt even tried. try it out especially when attaching the two main unit pieces together.Quote:

nice progress kut, what colors are in the last one?
its a piece of MA tubing i got from phatty glass that seems exceptional, and some MA rod for the marble, bell and topknot. i dont know if all MA tubing is this striking, but this is much more reactive than any rod i have seen. a bit bubbly too kinda, odd.

damn dude I love the body on this one.. small.. restricted and heady too, please make more of these :DQuote:

some hks guy wanted something like this, and i posted the other pic to show 151 that the MA one isnt really a super small body, in comparison to average, its just a tiny bit under average if anything..

151's colour scheme is really nice, that's my gf's fave colour!
I definitely like the front feet on the retti unit for all 4 feet, small compact and cute. The smaller units the better and I love ur baby rigs
Almost A year later... LolQuote:
