Making Of The Willy Mammoth

[black92se]

Mr W at what angle to you have your stinger?


Oh and BLACK92SE I dont like your avatar at all

haha, sorry

Cool welder, I was thinking about one of those.

[motorider228]

Ok, I'm wheelin close to you at MCR.
I'm planning on having a use for that and a reason for you to trail test it!

haha he will probably be using that on alot of people trucks at mcr5 lol

[gotrocks]

yeah but the thing that suck about those welders is you can't weld on yourself.  You only can weld on something if you can take it off the vehicle

If I remember correctly he was working on a way around that as well.

[gotrocks]

I will deffinatly be interested to see how that works.

[Rocksurfer]

Dang it I knew what you were hidding in that box, if you'd had waited a day. I saw your question and said it a welder, then I scrolled down and saw that you let the cat out of the bag. Excellent idea to put it in the ammo box.

[black92se]

You cant weld to yourself? That sucks. I will liek to see hwo you work that out.

[Willy Mammoth]

I spoke to Premier about this and they said you can't use a positive ground / neg lead on your own rig.

BUT if you are like me and don't need electric to run your rig and can disconnect the electrial system from the rig you can do what ever you please.

I was also told that using a positive electrode still does a good job because they use a high frequency DC that helps.

I have yet to try it so I can't comment.

you can  make your fuel pump run on manual cant you mark??

What fuel pump? The injection pump by it's self can suck the tank flat. What do I need with a fuel pump?

[unclejpl4x4]

you mean like have MwM pump it ?  maybe fab up pedles 2 a crank/cam

[79coyotefrg]

i meant injection pump,  older diesels  usually had a electric solenoid that cut the fuel supply to kill the engine, but had a screw to turn to keep it from cutting the fuel if the alt went bad

to run cooler  poor a qt of used motor oil back into the tank,  for HP  use ATF in the tank

[Willy Mammoth]

What part of NO power is needed to operate the engine in the Mammoth do you not understand?

Once it is started it will not stop till you kill it manually or I run out of fuel on the interstate.

What about used gear oil, I have plenty of that.

might be a tad thick

sorry i didnt explain,   you have a pull thingy  to kill it with,    like a Mack

It actually welds pretty smooth once it gets going through the high frequency DC, you can't build a skyscraper but for on the trail quick fixes and tow recievers on a motorhome they work just great.

Got the exo cage sanded and painted. 
As I was moving some plywood to lay the pieces out I found that little guy in the first picture laying in the grass. He's about the size of half dollar. A baby alligator snapper! I can't believe that little guy is going to grow into some so huge and mean and nasty.
Course I wouldn't put my finger near that guy even that little either!

[Lady Di]

as you can see I made good use of the plant hanger a friend gave me as a gift. LOL!

[gotrocks]

sure looks funny when  you see all that tubing off the rig.  It just looks like a messed up stick of tube.

[Rocksurfer]

Good work there Mrs. W. I wanna see 3 more coats before tommorrow.

[Lady Di]

Good work there Mrs. W. I wanna see 3 more coats before tommorrow.

but I already put on 3 coats!  

I'm waiting for it to dry to touch up whatever I missed on the back sides. 
It is now *feels like 95* with 53% humiditity.

[unclejpl4x4]

and don't forget 2 mix in the sparklies  and clear coat.

Been too busy to keep up to date, but this is what has gotten done this weekend.

The welder is installed and working.
The 5 point harnesses are installed.
The front bump stops are in and a list of other small stuff.

[Willy Mammoth]

This seems to work really well, it is way hot and welds in both polarity's without a problem.

It is better with a positive ground, but has no trouble with a negative ground, just need to push the rod in a little more to get the fill.

Even runs the grinder with no trouble.

Can't wait to see how it runs the coffee maker.

[CTENG in KS]

Sweetness...wish I had one!
Ive read elsewhere that those things put out some SERIOUS heat.

[toybuilt]

That little welders cool , it sure would be nice to have one on my truck someday

It will also run a blender.

[Willy Mammoth]

It will also run a blender.

Yes, so long as the motor has brushes.
