Anything welding

meh, salright

 

Going tubular for V2R

 

Permanent? Selling your other?

 

any little wire feeder would do fine. I have a little Lincoln I got for 80$ from the local pawn shop that does great. no gas port so I just run flux-core. .035 flux core in that machine does 5/16" fine triple passed. the problem with that wire though is that it makes light stuff (less than 1/16") hard to do. if you are not familiar with flux cored wire it takes a bit of practice, wire speed is crucial for proper flux coverage.

I liken it to running 6010 rod. 211 wire runs well up hill as well as it does down, and is very aggressive with a slow deposit rate. just remember to set your machine with electrode negative!

 

plant steam/condensate?

 

It sold 4 weeks ago to a local 2wd.

 

No 110 is going to.up to the task of anything over 3/16

 

Thanks for your help and I have ran flux core before and really enjoyed it

 

Nah. I do ship board installs for the gooberment . The stainless was for a small boat fueling station . The aluminium I ran was for setting up to weld deck cribbing for a false deck and the titanium piece was replaced with ss tube for a water pump. The ti is sitting on my bench at home

 

Hey, how do you change the mode of transfer ( mig welding) on a lincoln dh10 / invertek 350 pro.mig welder?

Thanks

 

Skids on...

 

Jody from Welding Tips & Tricks posted this video today. It talks about the cheap Flux Core MIG machines.

If you're considering buying one, there are some compelling arguments for getting something other than a 115V machine.

Ya, they suck and can barely weld anything. At the very least get something that runs off 110/220 so that the 110 is for a worst case scenario

 

Any girl welders out there? I have been trying to stay after work and learn to tig weld! It's addicting...

 

Takes Customer Service to a whole new level

I don't know there are any here. You might be the first. Nice looking weld-maybe a little hot but nice.

 

Hahah thanks, yeah I really can't just stay in the office all day. I like to do some hands on things and learn some new things since I work for a company like Camburg! The guys kinda laughed at me at first and then when they saw I was spending my own time welding, and they saw my first welds, they were like whoah.... you could be a welder. It's fun, I enjoy it!

 

There are people out there who don't?

 

If your on instagram, follow blatchley on there. She is an incredibly talented female welder

 

You might as well learn all that you can. Maybe something opens up down the line that you can move into-you never know.

 

I'll definitely check it out!
