Very interested in how you would hold/setup the pieces for tacking/welding, to maintain a consistent small gap between sections.theredbarron wrote: ↑Sat Dec 01, 2018 10:09 pm Don't know how far this project has progressed but what we would have done is gap all of the joints 20-30 thou ( in your language) or 0.5-0.75mm to eliminate the gaps at the final segment then welded with filler wire. You would also have achieved a lovely stack of dimes visual finish instead of welding autogenously which leaves a pretty plain flat looking weld.
The other problem is accurately changing the angle of 24 sides to achieve a consistent gap.
If you, or the company you work for, can achieve these results and make dimestacks- I'm happy to pay the costs!
