The short answer is by folding and welding different steels and acid etching the results. Twisting the billet and then hammering it flat is one method. Grinding into the billet is and hammering the billet flat is another. While there are some standard patterns you can get an idea of what an end product will look like by using two colors of plasticine and a rolling pin. Your only limitation is your imagination. One book I cannot recommend strongly enough is Pattern-Welded Blade: Artistry In Iron (Paperback) by Jim Hrisoulas.

What is weld mapping?
Weld mapping are visible marks that are seen on metal welded parts. Either they are welded together or repaired and sometimes you can tell who welded it, and when the weld was placed. Weld mapping is the process of assigning information to a weld joint to enable easy identification of its design (WPS), production (welders, their qualifications, date welded), quality (visual inspection, NDT) and traceability (heat numbers of materials joined & welding consumables). Weld mapping should also incorporate a pictorial identification to represent the weld number on the fabrication drawing, in case the designer does not nominate a weld number. You can use online weld mapping software such as Smart Welding Manager to create weld maps that provide 100% traceability as well as a pictorial representation.
Is there any way to fix rusted frame?
Cut and weld a splice from a donor frame or fabricate a piece to weld in.
Can you weld steel to stainless steel?
Yep, you can weld steel to stainless and you can weld stainless to steel. You can use steel or stainless welding rod in either case but the steel or steel welding rod will of course rust.
Why do welds crack?
It is usually not the weld but the metal right beside the the weld. If a piece of metal needs to be welded, it may be getting thin in other places and when it is welded, the heat from the weld can weaken the metal and in some cases cause the metal to crystallize and be more brittle than it was.
How to weld motorcycle frame?
first as u begin to build your frame u want to make sure you have the best fitments as possible this bill help strengthen your motorcycle frame. ok let say you have every piece cut up to proper sizes as u begin to assemble this frame your going to tack it all together(this serve 2 purposes). to every tack you lay make sure you also tack in the opposite side( this is necessary to avoid any pulling/warping from the weld being layed down later )after the entire frame is completely tack check it for squareness in every possible direction specially your line of travel and your rear axle plates alignments , after u done all this and your satisfied with the frame go ahead and weld it . NOTE: AS U WELD YOUR FRAME MAKE SURE NOT TO PUT TO MUCH HEAT IN ONE SINGLE AREA AT A TIME JUMP ARUOND WITH YOIUR WELDS

How do you weld stainless steel to stainless steel?
You can weld stainless steel to stainless steel using various welding methods such as TIG welding and MIG welding. However, it is best to get a professional to do the job. And understand that stainless steel does not weld very successfully under any circumstances - it will almost always, inevitably, break right next to the weld.

What is meant by the term welding and draw various welding symbols?
Welding is the process of joining two metals, usually involving a heat source. Welding symbols are the symbols used on part prints or assembly drawings to show size and type of weld, the specific welding process, and many other variables pertaining to that particular weld. A welding symbol looks like an arrow pointing to the location of the weld, with a horizontal line 'carrying' other symbols and numbers that describe how to make that weld. A picture of a welding symbol can be found when an image search is done.
How close can one weld be to another weld?
Depends on what you are welding, but generaly welds can meet, or even weld on top of a weld.

The two types of welds are?
TIG uses tungsten in a gun and electricity to melt the material, the user must manually add filler rod. Needs shielding gas Mig uses a gun, but the filler rod flows out of the gun. Electricity flows from tip of wire into material. needs shielding gas except with flux-cored wire. SMAW uses pre fluxed electrodes. electricity flows trough electrode holder, into material when material is scraped by electrode. No shielding gas. Oxy-fuel. Flame welding. Oxygen and a fuel (acetylene, propane, mapp, etc.) are mixed in a torch, ignited, and used to melt material. filler wire is manually added. There are more indepth explanations, and advanced machines, but that is the basics.
