Anything welding

Maybe dumb question...

Can I use my mig bottle with a tig welder?

 

It's not the bottle, it's what's inside the bottle in relation to the metal you're welding.

What gas do you have and what do you intend to weld?

 

75/25 Argon/co2

 

I just wanted to do my own exhaust for my turbo downpipe on my accord.

 

Stainless exhaust pipe??
Something tells me the CO2 will contaminate the tungsten .

Buried someplace in my brain from years ago I might be wrong.

 

Welding 2000’ linear feet of pipe onto the top of sea containers at work so that we can attach blue screens to the front of the containers to film into. Been a lot of work






Totally OSHA approved right?

 

Your cylinder is secured good enough for me!

I hate getting burnt I don`t even own a pair of shorts.

 

Nice tight clove hitch around the bottle and you’re good to go!!

I also don’t like getting burnt but it’s been hot as balls out so shorts it is!

 

Can I ask your votlage and wire feed rate for this? You give me hope to weld exhaust.

 

I will look when I get to the shop.

I know my setting for the amps was on 2, but I don't remember the wire speed.

I get back soon.

 

Here is what my machine is set at.

.035 solid core wire.

 

Noice, thanks!

 

So after you build this shit do they just leave it for potential use later or cut it all back up?

 

Just remember that will be a starting point your machine can be enough different to cause problems.

Good Luck!

 

Made these light poles, cool to see them up already.

 

No.

 

I'm not following this response. Please elaborate for this, knuckle dragging fabricator.

 

Apologies. My response was rather short.

OP askes of their wire Welding bottle could be used for GTAW, then clarified that their bottle is 75% Ar / 25% CO².

The answer is no, 75/25 cannot be used for successful gtaw welding.

 

Thankyou. I was wondering if that was the case.

 

So the other “backlot” where I’ve done Mando Season 2 and 3 and The book of Boba Fett and Ahsoka, we have the same kind of a set up with the containers and pipes welded to the top for tying blue screens too. It has been used for a bunch of crap. We used it for the entire ending fight scene on the bridge in Spider-Man: Far From Home. Anyways, my point in bringing all this up is that I honestly don’t know if they’ll keep all of this past this one season or if they’ll get rid of it all, but it very well could stay for multiple seasons, or we could scrap it all lol!

Often times the people who handle the money are kind of stupid. They drop dollar bills to pick up pennies
