Quality welding

[Redbird]

Had my morning project come to a halt, gotta appreciate quality control , no it’s not new but this should never have happened

China doesn't have quality control.

Beat it back in place, weld it back on, spray paint. Back in service, half hour tops.

I'd be happy if I could round up the tools in half an hour.

That's usually 80% of the job.

How did that happen?

Looks to me like "weld it back on" might be tricky due to position / location. I think I would consider modifying to usual clamp down arrangement......Oh, and a little lube perhaps ?

Nice AMT. Handier than a pocket on a shirt

(As long as you don’t want to turn or stop fully loaded)

Stuff happens. Bend and weld. Back to work

Beat me to it! Nice 622. I just sold mine a few months ago. Mine was missing the engine and front cowl. I was going to cut it off and make a dump trailer for my JD x540. A guy wanted to restore it so I let it go for $100.

I got our 626 for a song with a cracked engine block. Had it welded but it did not hold. Replaced it with a 13hp clone. Had to fab up an intake and exhaust and a choke linkage, but other than that it was pretty straight forward. Clone engine has a tiny alternator, so I just installed an old car battery and charge it every month or so.
I logger-load it (toss blocks on until something gives, then take off one stick) and it never complains. Since I built our splitter, I now cut blocks in the bush, drag them home in the gator and split them at the woodshed, stacking the splits right off the splitter.
