Additional e-mail-staats1234v@yahoo.com OVER 60 years SERVING TRI-COUNTY! (309)694-9177. (309)691-3736. (309)274-8888.
"Not good do not use for this check-up. The same guy came over at the beginning of the heating season and at the beginning of the air season. Really doesn't do anything just opens up the unit and checks for 10 minutes and leaves. Doesn't even say much about the units condition. Save your money. A complete waste of time. Would not use them for repairing either system since they haven't shown me they care about the service they give. This happened over a year ago and I have since needed service on my air conditioning unit."

"It went great! We found Fisher Precious Metals on Angie's List, and after googling them, we found they had very positive reviews across the web. Although it was a 45 minute drive from our home, we felt it might be worth it, and it was. We made an appointment with John via email, arrived at 11:00, and spent just over an hour in his office. He evaluated the sterling silver set we had to sell and gave us what we felt was a very fair price. He'd given us an estimate on the value of the gold coins via email, and although the price of gold had fluctuated since he'd provided the quote, the final price was very, very close to the initial quote. We were happy to learn that they will also buy jewelry, as I have a few pieces I haven't worn in a very long time. We were very pleased with the entire experience and will definitely return to their company when we have gold or silver to sell, and we're happy to recommend them to our friends. One thing to keep in mind is that sterling silver sets are basically worth the price of the silver itself. We knew that going in, so we were not disappointed and, in fact, the price we received was a little higher than we'd expected."

Experts consider MIG welding the easiest type of welding to master for a beginner. MIG welding uses a continuously fed wire electrode that doesn’t require changing nearly as much as the stick electrodes used for stick welding. You can continue welding without having to stop and change your electrode. The process also produces a low amount of slag and spatter.
Aluminum is the hardest metal to weld despite being one of the top three choices for welding among professionals (alongside low-carbon and stainless steel). In its ore or alloy form, aluminum has several physical and chemical properties that make welding complicated. For example, aluminum oxide, which forms naturally in a thin coating on the surface of aluminum, is an exceptionally hard substance. Combined with its high thermal conductivity, aluminum requires precise welding.
TIG welding produces the strongest welds and is reliable for high-quality results. Its slow cooling rate yields high tensile strength and ductility. TIG also produces the least distortion of all welding methods. However, it requires considerable skills and expensive equipment.
Welded connections are stronger than bolted ones. Welds offer better weight distribution of supported loads and greater resistance to rotational or shear forces. When done correctly, a welded joint is usually as strong, if not stronger, than the metal it joins. With bolting, cutting holes for bolts weakens the structure. However, bolting is less expensive, labor-intensive, and an affordable alternative to welding.
