New MIG Welding Made Easy DVD
|
|
Now available from Miller Electric Mfg. Co. is Ron Covell’s “MIG Welding Made Easy” DVD, which is designed to teach entry-level hobbyists MIG welding skills and help others improve their skills and techniques. In this easy-to-follow program, recognized metalworking expert, Ron Covell, covers the basic processes used for successful MIG welding; proper machine setup, joint preparation, wire selection, gun angles, travel speed and what to check when things go wrong. More information on the 70-min. video is available at: www.millerwelds.com/education/tools/#videos.
Covell uses real-world examples, such as a patch-panel repair, to show correct MIG welding technique. “I demonstrate several practical applications that show exactly what happens at the weld when you change any of the parameters,” states Ron Covell, owner, Covell Creative Metalworking. “These examples demystify the MIG welding process, allowing beginners to get up and running with as few mistakes as possible.”
Rounding out the video is a detailed look at plasma cutting for the home hobbyist. Safety, torch angles and technique are all covered as Covell explains the benefits of using a plasma cutter compared to other methods.
Ron Covell’s MIG Welding Made Easy DVD has an MSRP of $40.00 and can be purchased today directly from Miller’s Web site MillerWelds.com.

Add Flexibility, Enhance Welding Performance and Efficiency
New Heavy-Duty and Gasless Centerfire Parts
|
|
The Heavy-Duty Centerfire nozzles, designed for shipbuilding, trailer fabrication and other heavy equipment manufacturing operations, feature thicker walls, a new heat-resistant insulating material and a removable nozzle cone.
Heavy-Duty nozzles are well-suited to applications using mixed gases, spray transfer processes or thick aluminum welding and other uses that increase the heat transferred to the consumables.
The removable nozzle cone lowers downtime and consumables cost by allowing operators to replace only the cone, the most frequently damaged part of the nozzle, without having to remove and replace the entire nozzle. The removable cone also makes cleaning easier by allowing greater access to the nozzle body for spatter removal.
The Heavy-duty nozzles feature a built-in spatter guard that produces a calmer gas flow for improved weld puddle protection. The Heavy-Duty Centerfire nozzles are also available in a variety of configurations, with several nozzle orifices and tip recesses.
For more information about Heavy-Duty and Gasless Centerfire components or any of Bernard’s welding products, visit www.bernardwelds.com, call 1-800-946-2281, fax 708-946-6726, or write Bernard, 449 West Corning Road, Box 667, Beecher, IL 60401. 139

Doran 360RV Tire Pressure Monitoring System
|
|
The new Doran 360RV Tire Pressure Monitoring System provides the driver “at- a-glance’ status updates with a new patent pending Green Means GOODTM indicator. The unique system monitors up to 36 tires for RV, trailer and tow-vehicle applications. The driver is also alerted through multiple alarms (audible, location, pressure, and warning symbol) so that low-tire-pressure problems can be addressed and costly breakdowns and repairs are eliminated. The system costs just 50-80% of an average incident – meaning that it could pay for itself the first time that a low-pressure problem is avoided.
Installation can be accomplished without any special tools in about an hour, leaving no external antennas or exposed wires. A simple to understand and operate LCD screen display comes equipped with 4-way navigational buttons. Gold-plated heavy-duty truck-tested sensors deliver the longest life and corrosion resistance on the market. Sensor batteries last 20% longer than competitive models.
The Doran 360RV is ideal for RVs of all sizes and configurations, including fifth-wheels. All products are backed by a 30-day money back guarantee.
For more information on the Doran 360RV visit www.doranmfg.com or write to Doran Manufacturing, 2851 Massachusetts Avenue, Cincinnati, OH 45225, or call toll-free (866) 816-SAFE (7233).
