I picked this lot of mixed rods up yesterday
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=140192220929&ssPageName=STRK:MEWN:IT&ih=004
Probably about 500lbs of various brands of 6010, 6011, 6013 (Hobart,
Fleetweld etc etc) About half are open, the other half factory sealed
About 50 lbs of Certanium cutting and grooving electrodes
probably 10lbs of silver brazing rod Id never seen before, with its
own flux Certainium
Probably 200 lbs of stainless steel rod, another 50 lbs of cast iron
rods
Probably 100 lbs of variouis exotic electrodes for disimilar metals.
Certanium and Eutectics alloys mostly
Bout 50lbs of UTP E630, for welding T1 armor plate etc
There is a box of stuff that looks like aluminum or zinc...Marcaloy
1570, that says its for tig brazing aluminum...box is pretty rough,
cant make out all the writing...anyone know what the zinc based
fillers are?
And one box, 10lbs of what looks like bronze welding electrodes.
Is there such a thing??? I cant make out the numbers and they are in
a plastic bag, so there is no name.
Also 50-75lbs of something called Marcalloy 200. I cant find any
references to Marks Manufacturing or any reference to Marcalloy
electrodes.
Anyone have any info on them?
Oh..there was also a couple full 12" spools of aluminum Mig wire and a
couple full boxes of carbon arc rods, both round and rectangular,
copper plated. Must be for arc gouging.
Pallet box was marked Boeing, so it must have come out of a Boeing
plant. Looks like someone shoved the maint rod from the maint
department into the crate. Shrug
Did I do good?
Now I need to get a bunch more ammo cans...damnit...

Ammo cans are nice waterproof boxes, but another thing I have used with some
success, especally for stuff I am currently working with is a PVC pipe cut
to length with a glue on cap on one end and a male adaptor with a screw on
cap on the other end. A buddy gave me a couple of them a many years ago,
and now I make them up and use them for all kinds of things. Works great
for long drill bits too. (I have bits upto six feet long).

How did you maintain your sanity? I started The Security Consultant in
December 1993. I am going on my fifteenth year now. I undertand now why a
lot of companies limit their scope. To me its not much different
technically to install class 'A' fire alarm than it is to put in a decent
phone system, or cable a network, but it never ceases to amaze me how a guy
who can keep track of 1000+ conductors on a telephone backboard seems to
need to be totally retrained to connect four lousy wires on a motion sensor.

Indeed.
Did you ever hire one that turned out to be color blind? I did. Sigh
Worked ok for 4 conductor, and the guy could tape a window like no one
else...then I tried to get him to punch down some 50 pair....
Nightmare..utter nightmare
How did I maintain my sanity? It was still better than SEA.
