Damien and the Project Brupeg crew are welding steel skins onto the wings of their converted fishing trawler.0:15 To maintain structural alignment and prevent warpage, the team tacks the plates in place with a consistent three-millimeter gap before welding.2:12 When welding large, flat surfaces, the crew works concentrically from the center outward to allow for thermal expansion.4:03 Damien notes that leaving small sections unwelded until the end provides additional room for the metal to expand and contract during the process.5:32 The project involves fabricating winglets inspired by Airbus A320 designs, which will eventually be trimmed to size.3:16 After completing the welds on one side, the team plans to flip the wing to finish the opposite side and install drainage bungs.8:08 Once both wings are fully welded, the crew will perform a pressure test to ensure the integrity of the seams.10:06 Proper heat management and starting from the center are essential to preventing distortion when welding large steel plates.3:49
