AWS D17.1 is the specification for aerospace fusion welding.
It is common for 1G tests to be done in aerospace welding certification because shops often have positions and manipulators that can pretty much get every weld in the flat position.
But sometimes employers require a 2G and or a 3G test for a broader qualification.
This demonstration is a practice weld using 304L stainless in .063” thickness.
Other alloys like 17-7ph or 15-7ph would be more common in aerospace but practicing on 304L stainless helps anyway and is a lot cheaper.
Thanks for checking out this idea I wanted to try. Since getting this little Xtool laser I've thought about scribing a path with some hash marks. Let's see if it works out.
Thanks for checking out this week's FMF!! Answering a question about dealing with corporations and some of the different things you might see. This one is a little more salty than normal but real. Hope it helps. Thanks everyone!!
