Having trouble uploading pics again. The first few load fine the it locks up and will only load in classic view. I'll try it again here. This piece is from a Ford tractor backhoe. It part of the boom swing. It was repaired once before, but very poorly, they did no v-ing and had little penetration.
I ground off all the old weld and the plate they had added and v'd it good before welding.
I welded it with 7018, starting with a pass on the inside, then ground out the outside to make sure I got full penetration. Then ran passes on alternating sides til done keeping it clamped in place to prevent pulling as much as posible.
