1. got a new welder (score: 1): Author: Unknown; Date: Tue, 12 Mar 2002 09:53:28 -0800; A friend gave me a great deal on his Lincoln wire-welder when he upgraded for 'mo' power to weld large corral pipes.

2. Re: got a new welder (score: 1): Author: Unknown; Date: Tue, 12 Mar 2002 14:26:09 -0500; The first thing you should do is get some gas and solid wire. The flux core stuff is great for dirty/rusty metal, but you'll probably never be happy with the results you get on sheet metal. Assuming; /html/spridgets/2002-03/msg00394.html (9,183 bytes)
3. Re: got a new welder (score: 1): Author: Unknown; Date: Tue, 12 Mar 2002 13:37:10 -0600 (CST); [demime could not interpret encoding binary - treating as plain text] You can drop down to .030 self-shielding wire (with a tip change). That'll help a little, but you won't be able to "run a bead" a; /html/spridgets/2002-03/msg00395.html (8,662 bytes)
4. Re: got a new welder (score: 1): Author: Unknown; Date: Tue, 12 Mar 2002 17:18:31 EST; Glen: Use the gas. I have always heard that the flux core is not as easy to weld with as the gas. I have a TIP gas/wire welder and it does just fine on sheet metal, given my amateur status as a welde; /html/spridgets/2002-03/msg00402.html (7,405 bytes)
5. Re: got a new welder (score: 1): Author: Unknown; Date: Tue, 12 Mar 2002 19:26:27 -0600; That's the problem, I think. I use solid wire w/ CO2. The CO2 lays down a little flatter bead and requires way less grinding. Tough on welders, I'd opine. Practice is the key, all right. If you've tr; /html/spridgets/2002-03/msg00409.html (8,550 bytes)
6. Re: got a new welder (score: 1): Author: Unknown; Date: Tue, 12 Mar 2002 23:38:39 -0500; I have never had any luck with the flux core wire or no gas. Mine is set up with .024 and gas.

7. Re: got a new welder (score: 1): Author: Unknown; Date: Tue, 12 Mar 2002 21:27:43 -0800; I agree with the other posts on MIG... I have the little Miller, but have also used the Lincoln some. Once you use solid core wire with inert shielding gas, you will never go back to flux core wire.; /html/spridgets/2002-03/msg00422.html (7,831 bytes)
8. Re: got a new welder (score: 1): Author: Unknown; Date: Wed, 13 Mar 2002 06:36:08 -0800 (PST); Flux core wire (.035) will more ofte blow holes through .22 ga. sheet metal. I believe the thinest sheet metal you want to weld with .035 flux core is .18 ga. Personally, I hate flux core. It's good; /html/spridgets/2002-03/msg00433.html (7,922 bytes)
9. Re: got a new welder (score: 1): Author: Unknown; Date: Wed, 13 Mar 2002 12:31:35 +0000 (US/Eastern); I've done cosmetic work (body panels) with flux core. It can be done, but it does take much more clean-up than with gas. You're not going to get a "pretty" weld bead. Chris K. /// unsubscribe/change; /html/spridgets/2002-03/msg00446.html (7,356 bytes)
