Copy of "hustling" message on "LinkedIn". The elevation of my perspective and the confidence on my feet/ foundations has gone rapid upwards recently.
I had a lot of confidence knocked out of me by a succession of knocks whose combined effect I could not disentangle and comprehend until I reached being older and wiser.
Message might be quixotic, but in what way is that my problem?! :-)

With my 60th birthday imminent, I am granted a grand overview of technical endeavour.
These are commercially high-value topics I have developed an interest in. I present these specific interests, for anyone who is themselves wrestling with these issues and wants to interact. Seen on my own "weldsmith" website. Both are about observations I seek to test again and find if they can be reliably replicated as part of a design basis:
- Fatigue-resistant welds The indication is that cyclic stresses welded steel structures could bear could be at-least doubled. formatting link"Invitation to take interest in high-performance steel structures for cyclic-loading ("fatiguing") applications"
- Aluminium MIG / Aluminum GMAW quality-controlled welds I suspect pre-electronics welding conditions used in the USA give the best welds achievable for most Ali welds at greater than 3mm =
1/8th-inch thickness
I am easy to contact when on my website
