    A new chapter in life.. Enter the Wombat.

    Been a few sense I've updated here. I have been really busy between work and my side jobs. We also just got back from a 25 day trip to the Philippines visiting family and doing some Toyota research when I could get away. Any way I clipped a coyote on the way home from the Houston airport when we...

    What is your must cook meal or must have food for camping.

    I have 3 generations of cast iron cook wear that I have inherited. My favorite ones are my great grandfather's 14" cast skillet and his 16" Dutch oven. Both many years old and still going strong. Both of them were used to cook for the cedar choppers of the Texas hill county during the depression.

    Establish a puddle that breaks down both pieces of metal being welded. Then whip out of that puddle along the weld seam. Then come back into your weld puddle. If that makes more sense. Sounds like you may have your wire speed setting a little high. If you can feel the wire pushing back against...

    When you are running non shielded flux core it is often better to treat it like a 6010 or 6011 welding rod. You should step your weld some refer to it as whip and pause. There are some good videos on YouTube showing the stepping technique. It really improves your penetration in the weld bed and...

    Snorkel Or Cold air Intake

    On my first FJ I ran both a cold air and then switched to a snorkel. The K&N cold air I ran gave a little better fuel mileage but turned the check engine light on pretty regularly from contamination on the MAF sensor. The snorkel actually gave the truck some true cold air verified by data...

    Be sure you wear a good dust mask when you are dealing with anything military. Grinding and welding over CARC paint is not good for your health. I typically have it sand blasted off before I'll mess with it. You can't be to cautious.
