Speed Gauge
I had a fun little period in metal work yesterday and of course the two things that drew me were grinding and welding.
Speed is the main creative tool here.
“Fluid” at 1/15th of a second gives you that classic shower of sparks. Parents avert your eyes, but it is of course not as bad as it looks.
Busier and more aggressive looking 1/125th is the fine balance between blurred movement and frozen action. “Sparky”
Times it by ten and you get a droplet like look instead. Feels more “molten”.
The business end.
With high speed angle-grinding 1/1500th almost arrests the sparks. The sparks are fine and detailed.
Dropping it by half to 1/750th is more action packed.
But 1/60th gives you that stream of fire look.
Fun as usual.
