YZ85 Pipe Repair

April 27, 2015 by clayton miller

This YZ85 was smashed in and creased and had a crack on the crease. Stopped the crack, welded it up, popped the dent out.

Fixing up @mx_429 #yz85 pipe – took a hit to the header, dented it pretty bad and cracked on the crease. Stopped the crack, tig’d it up, blew out the dents the best I could without blowing out the seams on his #FMF #workspipe @fmfracing 👌keep it alive for a while ✊ – soundtrack is from the band #MyLifeWithTheThrillKillKult song is #aftertheflesh popular from the movie #thecrow if you grew up as a teen in the 90s you would know this 👍 #tig #welding #repair #twostroke #fab

KX250 Pipe Dent Repair

April 23, 2015 by clayton miller

This 96 model old Platinum Pro Circuit pipe was beat up pretty bad. Smashed in and creased up in numerous spots. I blew out the dents and fixed a hole from someone using the incorrect bolt for the side mount of the pipe.

Lil #timelapse from fixing that 250 pipe last week burning it down with the #torch ✊ #metallica #jumpinthefire #gopro

This shows the before and after of how dented up this 1996 250 2 smoker #FMF #fatboy #pipe was. Cut off the mount. Brazed the hole, tig’d a seam not shown. Welded the bracket back on. No leaks 👌👍✊ #welding #tig #brazing #repair #twostroke #mx #moto #vintage

Fixed this dudes 96 250 #twostroke pipe. Wasn’t worth it, but it’s been revived about the best it can be. Crushed in, dinged up baaaaad. Welded up a seam that split. The rear pipe mount – had a bolt to long put in and punched a hole. Cut off the bracket, brazed it, tig’d the bracket back on….. My #cojones are starting to ache, time for bed. #MX #moto #fmf #fatty ✊ A photo posted by Clayton Miller (@mxpimp47) on Apr 23, 2015 at 9:18pm PDT

Build up on a part to machine for display

April 19, 2015 by clayton miller

A buddy of mine Jeff Gerrans from 3J Precision needed this display part welded up to join two halves and then he machined it back down. It was to be painted and used with one of the big oil companies around here. Would of liked to see the finished part.

Late night grind last night. Welded up a part to be on display at shows. Not a production part. First time to do 3/4″ thick aluminum. The puddle got hot on me. You can see discoloration in the weld puddle. I need more seat time with thick material. It was 4043 filler rod. When I weld with 5356 it doesn’t do what this did. Haven’t figured out my setup. This weld will be machined down, painted and bondo’d for the display. Maybe some of the Wizards on here have some advice 👌👍 #tig #welding #weldporn #aluminum

Race Rig Railing Repair

April 6, 2015 by clayton miller

On top of semi’s and race rig’s they have the observation deck with railing that folds up. One of the rails got boogered up, so I chopped out that section and replaced it. Got it back dialed in.

Repaired this aluminum railing for an observation deck on top of a race rig 👌👍 #tig #weldporn #aluminum #mx #moto

KTM Subframe Repair

April 6, 2015 by clayton miller

On some of the models of the KTM dirt bikes they don’t weld on the fender mount support very well. Its so lightly tac’d it falls off. So I beefed it up a bit.

Lil GoPro edit fixing this subframe that clearly wasn’t done right from the OEM. Nothing like fixing some poo poo aluminum – this is some down and dirty real world repair work😬 ✊ #gopro #tig #weldporn #mx #moto

GoPro Footy From 3 Palms With Some Crackers

April 1, 2015 by clayton miller

Ripped some motos last Saturday with all the local cats at 3 trees. Was a good day, great weather, great riding, good times. Some bar dragging action, some random dude hitting an invisible kicker and crashing in front of me. All in all, a killer day of moto!
