One more Idea..is there a easier combination of Aluminum class (6xxx, etc) that is easier to work with in combination with a particular filler rod to make the entire process easier to tackle? I am using 6061 now.
Thanks again
John
CWIC,
I have a question for you: You reference that I can use DC with Helium. I have practiced for the last week or two with little success (which is fine, I fully understand the learning curve issue), but, are you suggesting that I get helium and try DC welding of Aluminum? You mention that...
Wow, nice credentials (CWIC), I am impressed. I appreciate, as well as the 100 or so others you have helped, your time and energy.
1) I am using a Lincoln Electric Square Wave 175
2) 3/32 98 % tungsten, 2% thorium (sp?)
3)100% argon
4) Don't know what you mean, the pieces are flat on welding...
Hello all,
I am trying to TIG weld a 1/16 " aluminum tube to a 1/4" aluminum plate (actually there is a 2" diameter hole in the plate that the tube fits into...) and I am having troubel...can anyone assist me with some pointers, tips, sites to check out, etc..../
I would really...
