Peugeot 203-1951, Peugeot Custom fenders -Peugeot custom pickup- planishing

 Somehow I managed to bond together the second fender, clean up the welds and level'd. I used a hand held unit planishing hammer build in the house, low radius(100) for the back side and higher craw die(45) for the front... ready for the final weld.#tigwelding #tigwelded #peugeot203custom #tigweldingtips #hotrods #welding #customfenders #custompickup #sheetmetalshaping #hotrod #metalshaping #sheetmetalfab #sheetmetalwork

Peugeot 203-1951, Peugeot Custom fenders -Peugeot custom pickup- TIG welding

I have not worked with such large panels so far, for safety and for my peace of mind I left a space of at least 1 mm between the panels to avoid excessive expansions, deformation that could occur during the welding process and it worked.

T.I.G welding process, argon flow 2 l/ min, 2.6 mm thoriated Electrode , air cooled torched,.25-28 Amp

I'm glad I chose to weld them T.I.G and not oxy -gas. I will probably make a clip, focusing on the penetration of the back weld.
