welding machines and torches

   / welding machines and torches #11  
I have to agree that a MIG is the way to go. The flux core works just fine, but it has a lot of splatter and is better in the wind. The MIG function is great, and makes a lot cleaner weld. Mig is the easiest to learn. A Victor torch I feel is also a good way to go, because you can find the new tips almost everywhere. Mine is a Smith, and in my little valley, I have to go to the Internet to buy new ones. Good luck, and have way too much fun with the new toys...I mean, tools.:laughing:

The mig will be the easiest to learn. You can weld almost any thickness, you just have to build up to the thickness you need. You kind of make a pyramid. You lay 1 bead down, the lay one at the outer edge of that one, then one on top. You can keep doing that, just keep each pass about 3/8 - 1/2 inch wide.

Huh? Are you kiddin me! I hope your talking about leggos.
