    I don't think it will be that windy. Thanks for the advice. Might save me from cleaning my travesty of a garage!

    Yeah....The shielding gas pretty much floods the local area. Being as you are about 1/2" away when welding, your gonne be fine. :)

    Also john, Depending on how much welding your gonna be doing, you may want to consider that flux core wire...or whatever its called. I hear its not as strong of a bead, but I havent been able to break one yet.

    Some stuff. Not a lot, just some.

    I use that. As long as you have a clean surface and good ground, the stuff works pretty well.

    I spoke at length with Richard Stubbs about the install. He said I could go either way. He said that he has used the welder that I have and it will do just fine and if I ever wanted to weld thicker than the machine was rated I could use the flux core stuff. I think that I am going to go with the shielding gas on this one and see how it goes. It's about time I used that fancy blue box inthe garage.

    I had always used sheilded (at work). Then when I bought my 110v, I made sure I could do both with it. I started using the flux core it came with. I have to admit it is a little different than the sheilded. But if the area is prepped right and you take your time, you can lay down some nice beads.

    Yeah....And the area doesnt have to be overly prepped....Most times I kinda half ass it, and it still sticks good.
