does anyone hear do or have access to aluminum welding.. id preferr to have it migg than tig.

would be welding angle peice and a 1inch tube to it.. possibly do a few plug welds where angle meets tubing.. would also be a peice on angle.. figure 6-8 welds

6 1-2inch beads
2-4 plug welds

would proably need 3 of these made... i can have all the prep work done... cutting,drilling ect ect just need the welding done.

anyone??:poke:

it dont need to be pretty...just need to hold.

its for surf fishing it will be covered in sand and crap most of the time... just needs to hold.

i may switch the aluminum tube for pvc which i wont need welding for.

Along with that spool gun, get a bottle of helium for shielding gas. The helium makes for a hotter better flowing puddle. Bead appearance is right there between argon mig and argon tig.
