From the House of Baaaad Brakes
I finally shut off the pulse and used the pedal and suddenly I was happy again. Anyhow, I am customizing a bike for some rat rod club and made these funky brake arms up from two sets and some chain.

Do these rat rod guys have loud pipes?

I Changed the tungsten six times for four welds, buddy. It seems to be drawn magnetically to the puddle.
First I bobbed off a left and right brake arm. I stacked identical unbobbed arms on top them. I took an unplated flat washer and ground it to fit inside the joint. Then I could just blast right through the crack into that thick flat washer and not have to worry about burning back at the edges. This made for a very strong assembly. I marked the hidden washer with an arrow because it’s not too obvious what’s going on in this photo. There was no welding in this area. That’s a really awful photo because the welded assembly sitting in a can of washers and springs. I used some regular filler rod & I ground the welds down and burnished them so the parts would look nice. That’s why the structural washer was important.
