In What is a Low-Carb Diet?, I outline three approaches to low-carb eating, only one of which focuses on ketosis as a goal throughout the diet. Diets such as the Atkins Diet start out as a very low-carb ketogenic diet, but as people add carbohydrate, many or most will be eating too much carbohydrate to be in ketosis.
At the core of any custom motorcycle project is the welding process used to join the tubing that makes up the bike's frame. This article will discuss how both MIG and TIG welding fit into this process and how even a novice welder can get started. (As seen in the Welding Journal, October 2005)
SMAW, or stick welding, is the most common form of arc welding. In the process, a stick or electrode is placed at the end of a holder. Using electricity from the power source, an arc is struck between the tip of the electrode and the metal welding surface. The heat of the arc melts the tip of the electrode creating the filler material that is deposited as the electrode is consumed.
