[MBZ] My announcement
I wanted to let you all be the first to know about my decision and announcement. I have been thinking long and hard about it, and had to screw up my courage but with your help and consideration I decided it is finally time to let the world know. I have become transGerman. Yes, this may surprise everyone, but it is something I have known since I was a kid, even before I really knew what German was. I guess my first awakenings started when I watched WW2 movies on TV when I was young. Then Combat! came along in prime time, and my curiosity was aroused more by the German soldiers, tanks, guns, half-tracks, and yes, old Mercedes staff cars than by Sarge, Little John, etc. The power and strength projected by that machinery resonated with me deep in my soul. I cringed when the pilots of 12 O'clock High bombed all that equipment but I could not let on. As time went on I was always the German when we played war, and willingly allowed myself to be shot and captured by my American friends. They all thought it was just playing, but inside I knew I really was German and it was not acting for me. Hogan's Heroes? Don't even get me started on that -- Colonel Klink showed me that wearing a monocle was OK, even though I only did it in private. In high school, when I heard a classmate's father actually owned a Mercedes-Benz car, you can't imagine the feelings that stirred in my heart. I wanted to go touch it and feel it and run my hands over it but it was not to be. I still could not tell anyone for fear of the lingering stigma associated with Germaness, but when another friend started taking German language classes I started to feel like there was hope. I was still afraid to open up to anyone about my true self, so kept it repressed even to family and friends. As I got older, and the opportunity arose to actually purchase a Mercedes-Benz car of my own, I jumped on it! The joy I felt was tempered by the reality that actually coming out as transGerman would alienate friends and neighbors and family, so I kept it quiet still (though I think many suspected my true nature). When I began spending hours talking about German cars, researching the fascinating details of the different makes and models and years and how to keep them running well, I knew it was only a matter of time. I found this list and found a community of acceptance, which has meant so much for me. When my son needed another car, my first thought was Mercedes! I could live vicariously even more through his experience, though I was not trying in any way to recruit him to this lifestyle, though he did need to develop an understanding of what it meant. My daughter learned to drive a Mercedes but she is clearly cisAmerican too. My near-redemption came when my wife indicated that she too wanted a Mercedes-Benz automobile, a diesel even! I knew then that acceptance of my true Germaness was at hand! I'm sure many of you have suspected this and I thank you for your understanding and acceptance of my decision to make it official! What really made it right for now was driving the ML350 Bluetech this weekend and just knowing it was sooo right! All my fears and apprehensions have evaporated, and I truly feel joy to announce officially and with great pride my transGermaning. I know we can't all be physically together to celebrate this big event in my life so I hope that you all can go start your cars today and think a bit about what this means to me, and to work hard for full transGerman acceptance in our society.

Re: [MBZ] Wut I dun Lernt frum Wulding this week
Hammering hot welds is done with oxyacetylene welding. It is not suitable for mig or wire feed welding as the puddle cools too quickly. If you want to undo the distortion caused to the metal by the shrinking effect of the weld, grind the weld down on both sides and then hammer on dolly over the seam. This stretches the metal and removes the distortion. Only hammer on the weld line and 1/4 inch above and below!

Location of hammer / dolly is critical so you develop muscle memory as it becomes automatic.. also, Harbor Freight makes a dandy device that holds the welding torch. It is magnetic on one end, so it attaches it's self to nearby metal, and the part that holds the torch keeps it and it's hot end out of your way. It is just a piece of flat stock with a hole in it.. one side of the hole is cut to a slot.. you slip the torch in through the slot and release it and it hangs there ready to pick back up.. very clever and handy.. about $6 as I recall. Hammering the weld will also break up the slag, which sets you proper for next tack weld. It works particularly well if you use the punch hole / lap joint process I first described..

I should be able to find something like that clay On Jun 14, 2015, at 9:54 PM, G Mann via Mercedes wrote: Question I failed to ask: What diameter wire are you using? .020, .030 or .035 ? To use the .020 wire, you will need to change the wheel gap adjustment to fit the smaller wire AND change the wire guide in the business end of the torch to fit the smaller wire. Smaller wire will give you a hotter, smaller weld puddle, so you will need to change your speed of torch movement to adapt. However, with smaller wire, you should get a weld puddle that is more correct size for thinner sheet metal. If you have an amperage adjustment, crank it down for the smaller wire. Again, do spot welds, Hammer and dolly the welds while still red, which will flatten the weld joint and make better contact, thus better welds.. Your tack weld should be 1/8 to 1/4 inch long, so as you work the panel into position [tack on one side.. hammer/dolly to flatten tack the other side .. hammer/dolly to flatten.. As you work around the repair.. soon you have the patch contained with the weld joint overlap nice and flat from hammer / dolly and on the second pass.. instead of tack welds 4 inches apart.. go in between the 4 inch tacks.. same routine.. so on second pass you have a tack ever 2 inches.. repeat as necessary.. Soon you have a good repair. On Sun, Jun 14, 2015 at 6:26 PM, clay via Mercedes mercedes@okiebenz.com wrote: I actually read the destructions that came with the zapper. I followed the set up to the letter and even made sure the wheels were in the proper orientation for the wire I was using. There are no teeth to the wheels that would provide decent bite. Just some knurling like you would find on a dime in the grooves. I have the tension adjusted almost to the point of strangling the wire. It does not speed up or make the wire feed properly. I am thinking the low speed setting is actually in Dummy mode. Since there is no adjustment for heat, just speed, it could be a failsafe. The lowest speeds must be regulated in such a manner that using it on thin sheet metal would not allow it to function long enough to burn through. Maybe it is set to feed tacks so you do not overheat and warp.

I've never been into the bowels of a Harbor Fright unit.. but there should be a tension adjustment on the wire feed motor.

[MBZ] More on welding learnings
My buddy has been taking serious baking classes at the local tech college (he is a retired doctor and loves baking though they wanted him to take an English test to make sure he could communicate well enough to learn) and tells me that it is free once you hit 60 years on your meter. I recently did that (HTF did that happen) so was thinking to go learn welding since it costs nothing but time and I think a materials fee.

Very well done. Only thing missing is coupla ACHTUNGS! So, we'll be seeing you on cover of Der Spiegel in lederhosen? Wilton - Original Message - From: Rich Thomas via Mercedes mercedes@okiebenz.com To: Mercedes Discussion List mercedes@okiebenz.com Cc: Rich Thomas richthomas79td...@constructivity.net Sent: Tuesday, June 16, 2015 9:48 AM Subject: [MBZ] My announcement I wanted to let you all be the first to know about my decision and announcement. I have been thinking long and hard about it, and had to screw up my courage but with your help and consideration I decided it is finally time to let the world know. I have become transGerman. Yes, this may surprise everyone, but it is something I have known since I was a kid, even before I really knew what German was. I guess my first awakenings started when I watched WW2 movies on TV when I was young. Then Combat! came along in prime time, and my curiosity was aroused more by the German soldiers, tanks, guns, half-tracks, and yes, old Mercedes staff cars than by Sarge, Little John, etc. The power and strength projected by that machinery resonated with me deep in my soul. I cringed when the pilots of 12 O'clock High bombed all that equipment but I could not let on. As time went on I was always the German when we played war, and willingly allowed myself to be shot and captured by my American friends. They all thought it was just playing, but inside I knew I really was German and it was not acting for me. Hogan's Heroes? Don't even get me started on that -- Colonel Klink showed me that wearing a monocle was OK, even though I only did it in private. In high school, when I heard a classmate's father actually owned a Mercedes-Benz car, you can't imagine the feelings that stirred in my heart. I wanted to go touch it and feel it and run my hands over it but it was not to be. I still could not tell anyone for fear of the lingering stigma associated with Germaness, but when another friend started taking German language classes I started to feel like there was hope. I was still afraid to open up to anyone about my true self, so kept it repressed even to family and friends. As I got older, and the opportunity arose to actually purchase a Mercedes-Benz car of my own, I jumped on it! The joy I felt was tempered by the reality that actually coming out as transGerman would alienate friends and neighbors and family, so I kept it quiet still (though I think many suspected my true nature). When I began spending hours talking about German cars, researching the fascinating details of the different makes and models and years and how to keep them running well, I knew it was only a matter of time. I found this list and found a community of acceptance, which has meant so much for me. When my son needed another car, my first thought was Mercedes! I could live vicariously even more through his experience, though I was not trying in any way to recruit him to this lifestyle, though he did need to develop an understanding of what it meant. My daughter learned to drive a Mercedes but she is clearly cisAmerican too. My near-redemption came when my wife indicated that she too wanted a Mercedes-Benz automobile, a diesel even! I knew then that acceptance of my true Germaness was at hand! I'm sure many of you have suspected this and I thank you for your understanding and acceptance of my decision to make it official! What really made it right for now was driving the ML350 Bluetech this weekend and just knowing it was sooo right! All my fears and apprehensions have evaporated, and I truly feel joy to announce officially and with great pride my transGermaning. I know we can't all be physically together to celebrate this big event in my life so I hope that you all can go start your cars today and think a bit about what this means to me, and to work hard for full transGerman acceptance in our society.

Re: [MBZ] Wut I dun Lernt frum Wulding this week
Welding by any means leaves the metal hot, thus more fluid and available to be shaped via hammer/dolly. True, wire feed welds cool more quickly, however not instantly. You have several minutes to improve the shape of the patch, the edge fit, and to flatten the weld, which relieves stress from weld cooling and will break up slag, which improves your second pass weld. When welding sheet metal in the 18 gage or less thickness, fit at the weld joint is critical. a gap between the two pieces will cause you problems with the weld, burn through, and make a bad looking joint. This is why I much prefer the 1/4 inch punch hole, 1/2 in lap joint repair previously posted. The Cleco clamps hold the patch in position to give intimate contact which makes a good rosette weld [tack]. Followed by hammer/dolly to flatten and fit the patch to the hole being repaired even more closely. I've used the same tecnique for both gas torch and wire feed welds on panel repair over the last 30 + years.. In my experience, it works best.. Trying to join two panels edge to edge takes skill levels far above the beginner stage. Your mileage may vary.. On Tue, Jun 16, 2015 at 7:54 AM, Dimitri via Mercedes mercedes@okiebenz.com wrote: Hammering hot welds is done with oxyacetylene welding. It is not suitable for mig or wire feed welding as the puddle cools too quickly. If you want to undo the distortion caused to the metal by the shrinking effect of the weld, grind the weld down on both sides and then hammer on dolly over the seam. This stretches the metal and removes the distortion. Only hammer on the weld line and 1/4 inch above and below!

Location of hammer / dolly is critical so you develop muscle memory as it becomes automatic.. also, Harbor Freight makes a dandy device that holds the welding torch. It is magnetic on one end, so it attaches it's self to nearby metal, and the part that holds the torch keeps it and it's hot end out of your way. It is just a piece of flat stock with a hole in it.. one side of the hole is cut to a slot.. you slip the torch in through the slot and release it and it hangs there ready to pick back up.. very clever and handy.. about $6 as I recall. Hammering the weld will also break up the slag, which sets you proper for next tack weld. It works particularly well if you use the punch hole / lap joint process I first described..

Crank down barely grasps the 0.030 enough to feed at lowest speeds. I am thinking your advice to hammer the hot puddle may require a third and forth hand. I should be able to find something like that clay On Jun 14, 2015, at 9:54 PM, G Mann via Mercedes wrote: Question I failed to ask: What diameter wire are you using? .020, .030 or .035 ? To use the .020 wire, you will need to change the wheel gap adjustment to fit the smaller wire AND change the wire guide in the business end of the torch to fit the smaller wire. Smaller wire will give you a hotter, smaller weld puddle, so you will need to change your speed of torch movement to adapt. However, with smaller wire, you should get a weld puddle that is more correct size for thinner sheet metal. If you have an amperage adjustment, crank it down for the smaller wire. Again, do spot welds, Hammer and dolly the welds while still red, which will flatten the weld joint and make better contact, thus better welds.. Your tack weld should be 1/8 to 1/4 inch long, so as you work the panel into position [tack on one side.. hammer/dolly to flatten tack the other side .. hammer/dolly to flatten.. As you work around the repair.. soon you have the patch contained with the weld joint overlap nice and flat from hammer / dolly and on the second pass.. instead of tack welds 4 inches apart.. go in between the 4 inch tacks.. same routine.. so on second pass you have a tack ever 2 inches.. repeat as necessary.. Soon you have a good repair. On Sun, Jun 14, 2015 at 6:26 PM, clay via Mercedes mercedes@okiebenz.com wrote: I actually read the destructions that came with the zapper. I followed the set up to the letter and even made sure the wheels were in the proper orientation for the wire I was using. There are no teeth to the wheels that would provide decent bite. Just some knurling like you would find on a dime in the grooves. I have the tension adjusted almost to the point of strangling the wire. It does not speed up or make the wire feed properly. I am thinking the low speed setting is actually in Dummy mode.

Hey, if you are not going to actually make any real use of it, you can make your own certificate. You could even get it printed on a T shirt.

[MBZ] Allen Edmonds Tent Sale
It's underway in Port Washington. I just bought a pair of shoes named after my favorite president for $197 from the Ohio outlet store, but they can't ring them up until the sale officially starts tomorrow. http://www.shoebank.com/FactorySecondInventory.php?STY=7635SDIM=ESIZE=100 I'm not sure what's going on, the sale was advertised to start on the 18th, but the tent is up in Port Washington, the sales prices are up at shoebank.com, and anybody can walk up to the factory tent and buy them at the sale price, or call an outlet store and reserve them for tomorrow at the sale price. That's my third pair of $150 wingtips this year. The others were first quality $295 shoes, these are seconds quality $495 shoes. Now that I have black, grey, and walnut, I suppose I'm set until I get a good deal on some wingtip boots or something in burgundy or oxblood.

Re: [MBZ] ?
The sun is coming up, I'm getting out of work. I tried the Chinese breakfast at the hotel restaurant yesterday. It was some kind of rice gruel, like thick oatmeal, with chicken breast, fried wonton strips, a century egg which was cut into 8ths radially from the top down and some kind of tasty sauce. Everything was good except the century egg which turned my stomach although I'm not sure why. I think its a mental thing. I did eat most of the egg, and most of the other stuff around it which was delicious. I haven't decided what to have today yet, I'm thinking my favorites are the Filipino breakfast which has crispy pork and the cinnamon roll french toast. -Curt From: WILTON via Mercedes mercedes@okiebenz.com To: mercedes list mercedes@okiebenz.com Cc: WILTON wilt...@nc.rr.com Sent: Tuesday, June 16, 2015 5:31 PM Subject: [MBZ] ? ___ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com ___ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com

Re: [MBZ] Today's Cluster
Given the situation, I would have taken the buyer to FLAPS, showed him how to replace a coil, and told him to come back if that didn't fix it. I suspect once they start going, he'll be replacing one or two a year for the next 3-5 years.
