Buckrancher, I have a question. When you weld stainless do you get discoloration?

And if so how did you polish it off? Just buffing, or is there a secret wepon?

Great talent and amazing skills!

And just think this could surive for many decades, long after most rust back to earth!

I'am a big fan of your work!

Keep the good stuff comming!

HORSEFEATHERS!

Thank you

Being that everything stainless is Tig welded the discoloration area is small

and close to the weld a regular foam sanding sponge will remove it

I had decided to use a one direction sanded finish(brushed) on all the stainless as it hides imperfections and is much easier than trying to polish to a mirror finish

(as I do not have large buffing wheels)

Awesome stuff! Expectations are high coming off the 854 job you did. Looks like you're living right up to it! :D

At first I was going to use a stock steering wheel but for some reason I

could not leave it be.So after some thought this is what I did. I bought

some rtv silicone rubber moldmaking compound and some black casting

resin

First thing was to make a mold from a good steering wheel

Next I made a new center hub and spokes with some engraveing

At this point I cut plastic grip off the old wheel at the joint and sawed the old hub and spokes out of the steering wheel also whipped up a fixture to hold everything

for welding in the new center

new hub and spokes welded in I did this with my mig and stainless wire

once the new stainless pieces were welded in I recast the spoke joint

All recast you can see the pouring sprues sticking up

Done removed the sprues sanded smooth and painted with krylon fusion gloss black

bottom side I used brass to pin the spokes in the hub

:D

Guess I'll be the one to ask, when casting your steering wheel, what the heck was the crayon for? Just filling the hole where your poured the resin in? :D
