I am interested in teaching myself how to weld with gas. O2 Accetiline, not MIG gas.
I have a mig welder that I am sort of competent with. Is there benefit to welding with gas over MIG, or am I going to find that if I buy the tank set up, I'll never use it over MIG. Zach |

I learned to gas weld in high school shop class... a long time ago. I bought a used complete gas setup last year, just because it was there and cheap. $100 or so. Haven't used it at all yet. It will probably only ever get used for heating junk for reasons already mentioned here.
But I have one. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif) And it makes really cool fire. |
