My version of a David Smith sculpture! I learned how to weld with an oxy-acetylene torch to make this and felt very powerful. By the time I finished this piece it was significantly taller than I am (and yet my parents still insisted I bring it home from college)

(The IUPAC system retains the name acetylene, so there are two acceptable names for ethyne: ethyne and acetylene. Of these two names, acetylene is used much more frequently (figure 16.22).)

Has Door ever used used a oxyacetylene torch for combat purposes? And on a related note would Door ever willingly break shop safety rules?

Photographed above is Florence “Woo Woo” DiTullio Joyce with a oxyacetylene torch at the Electric Boat shipyard Groton, Connecticut in 1942. Florence was the first woman hired by the Fore River Shipyard in Quincy, Boston, Massachusets in 1942. She was hired when the shipyard lost most of their male employees to enlistment during WWII. Her nickname “Woo woo” according to Florence came from the call that sailors and yard workers called out to her and she took it to heart. Photographd by Life Magazine she quickly became dubbed “Wendy the Welder” like many American female workers in the industry at the time. Photographed by Life Magazine @life
Note: Electric Boat was the premier submarine manufacturer in the United States during the war.

Ive come very far in my tense relationship with the oxyacetylene torch I think. It's no longer a general fear and now more like a healthy fear and respect, like a horse

i really kind of want to build one of those janky garage fishtank-carbattery style electrolysis hydrogen torches. i can think of a dozen fun things to do with them. metallurgy. a lot of metalwork really. much cheaper and manageable than oxyacetylene. also to give myself/neighbors tinnitus

auauaugh i can't even imagine how im going to get through sophomore year 😭 i don't even know how i'm going to get through this semester i always feel like i'm scrambling. even though i can tell im making way better progress compared to last semester like i'm learning things quicker im getting more done i have experience to build on instead of doing 10 fitups of shitty t joints im doing 3 or 4 and that's because (even if my teacher has to come in my booth to show me how to do it) with each bead slowly i remember how i've welded before and understand how i'm supposed to do it but that's still so much time im still behind compared to where my teacher said we should be and i don't understand how everyone else is understanding and doing everything faster than i am 😭
#alex talks#week after spring break is going to be entirely taken up by one project my teacher said it might even take us two weeks and we have like 8#weeks of school total left and not even halfway through our projects so far and like i said i am still behind on those projects#that aren't even halfway through. every time i have to weld something i have to do it 3 or 4 times before i remember how welding works and#how to watch under the hood for what i'm supposed to be looking at to know where i'm supposed to be pointing and how fast i'm supposed to be#moving and therefore how to correct when im not doing that and with this stupid week long project we get one chance on each joint#i really like oxyacetylene i think i could get really good at that and it's actually fun bc with welding w a hood it's so dark &it's hard to#adjust and once you're running a bead that's it you're running it you're in there i have to remember everything but with oxyacetylene it#moves slow it's a way lighter shade i can see it i can pause in a bead and go back and fix things smooth them out#but people don't even use oxyacetylene welding anymore for like actual jobs bc it's so inefficient we're just doing it to practice for tig#i mean people still use oxyacetylene cutting and brazing which i haven't learned yet and probably very specific scenarios maybe like#idk very small seams or more artistic things people use it but not a lot out in the industry i mean#i had a nightmare last night where i was oxyacetylene welding a pipe i still have to weld and i blew a hole in it and it just kept getting#bigger and bigger and the metal rolled away from itself in a way that metal doesn't do and i couldn't control it and then i rolled the#puddle until it covered the blown hole mostly (not how anything works) but it was still charred and misshapen and ruined. so anyway
