    Anybody got any experience welding a tractor exhaust back on guys?
    Knocked it off the other day trying to top under hanging branches. It broke right at the base where it enters the bonnet.

    I got the one on the 996 welded 4/5 years ago, TIG welded, worked a treat.. Any good pipefitter would weld it in a heartbeat.

    Feck sake, shur 75 of them were declared obese last year and nearly 300 couldn't pass the basic medical fitness test.

    I'm sure with 2 weeks training you'd have passed with flying colours.

    He maybe on an old contract. The older guys who joined in the late 80s early 90s don't even have to do fitness tests
