Reply to "MIG welder"

Well Gary, I haven't done it in about thirty years but it had it's advantagous. You had dark goggles instead of a full helmet that you can't see out of. These were more like dark sunglasses so you weren't totaly blind with them on. YOu can only do thin metal, like sheet metal, which for body work is sideal. The only thing is you do put a lot of heat in to whatever you are working on, so you have to be carefull to keep it from warping on you. Like what you do is tack the metal in place. Then instead of starting at one end and welding all the way to the other, you weld on one end between two tacks, then go to the other end and weld between two tacks there, then alternate like that until done. It is a lot like Tig, only easier. At least I thought it was easir.
