Someone has absolutely butchered these poor welding samples and we need to know what happened to them!
This video idea has been rolling around in my head for a while now and I'm so glad it is finally out for your viewing pleasure. Follow along with the crime scene investigator to learn how to diagnose what is going wrong with your own MIG welding beads.
How did it happen? Who is the butcher? What can you do to prevent these horrendous welds from happening to you? All of these questions will be answered in the video and much more! Watch until the end to see all of the different victims and the special twist at the end of the video!
Special thanks to all of the extras in this short film: Scott, Alan, Terry, Charisma. Without your help this masterpiece would not have been possible!
